http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26852 Exec task blocks when spawned ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-02-11 15:17 ------- This is hard to correct for the following reason. spawn is designed to let you start programs that outlast the ant run. Which means that you cannot hook inputs and outputs to bits of the ant JVM, as then when ant died, the app would be in trouble. What may be possible would be for someone (you?) to tweak the system so that you can specify input and output files and ant would generate the script for you. I wouldnt expand exec to do this though; it is complex enough. And given the cross platform nature of the problem (code for every OS/shell that ant runs on), I am not enthusastic about doing it myself. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
