Eclipse is pretty similar to #1.
We have a progress monitor / build listener within which we check to see
if the user has requested to cancel the build.
If the monitor is cancelled we throw a OperationCancelledException which
halts the execution of the build from the Eclipse entry point and reports
the cancelled message to the user.

well, I'll do the same thing. Now I know it works.
Ant-wise, we could create an interruptable logger that lets you do this
formally; the main reason for doing so would be to add tests for it.
This is clearly an important use case.

Re: terminating running builds better

What do IDEs do to stop ant builds? just kill the thread/process?
NB behaves as follows:
1. It sets a special flag. The next time any BuildListener/BuildLogger
method is called on the IDE's listener, it will throw a BuildException,
which usually stops the build.
2. If several seconds have elapsed with no listener method, or if the
build did not stop for any other reason, Thread.stop is called.
For example, if <java fork="true"> is the active task, any output
printed will cause #1 to be triggered. Otherwise, ThreadDeath is caught
by the task, which stops the external process and then rethrows.
Not perfect but seems to work reasonably well in practice. #2 could
probably be improved to first try Thread.interrupt and only use
Thread.stop as a last resort.
