Just because you use exec doesn't mean you are os-dependent. If the same exec-utable is available on all os's, then you maintain os independence. I use executables in my builds (i.e. m4, isql, sqlplus) and the same build files work on Windows, Solaris and RH.

I want the same ant script to run on windows and solaris. Any way out?
