I am attempting to write a python script that will check out and build

To this end, I’m trying to run my ant build from inside of python. I
have tried the following:
proc = subprocess.Popen(ant -version')
proc = subprocess.Popen(call ant -version')
These both generate:
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "C:\Python32\lib\subprocess.py", line 946, in _execute_child
startupinfo)
WindowsError: [Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified
If I run python from the command prompt and generate this error, I turn
around immediately and run ant –version and it works fine, so it’s not a
path issue.
Please help?
Try passing the command line arguments as a list of strings:
proc = subprocess.Popen(['call', 'ant', '-version'])
You might need to provide the full path of 'ant'.
