Hi DD!
Thank you very much for the response!
I read the FAQ in response to your message - but I still don't see how to do what I want, which is to open a new command window and run something in it..
<exec dir="${scripts}" executable="cmd.exe" > <arg line="/c test.bat"/> </exec>
or
<exec dir="${scripts}" executable="cmd.exe" > <arg line="start"/> <arg line="/c test.bat"/> </exec>
For example, this runs a batch file, but still in the same window.
I need to run several Java processes in new windows in a particular order: - a class server - a Jini lookup server - another class server - a service provider - a client....
Each of these should spin off into a new command window so they can keep running and let the next process be launched.. This is easy to do with a batch/shell file and I am hoping to do the same with Ant..
Do you think this can be done?
Rob :)
