The error status is established in the value passed to System.exit( int ) which is handled in the org.apache.tools.ant.Main class startAnt method. The JVM establishes the ERRORLEVEL on exit before returning to the script - in other words - the ant.bat file doesn't need to handle this - however - if you have a bat file that invokes a series of ant builds you can trap success (or failure) using ERRORLEVEL and handle things like early exit.
