I also don't think you want to use spawn in this instance... I am
guessing you want to see the result of the call? If so, ant won't log
anything with the spawn attribute set to true. Another thing, I note
you are using ls - unfortunately, with no spawn, you will get an error
from sh as follows:
[exec] /bin/sh: - : invalid option
[exec] Usage: /bin/sh [GNU long option] [option] ...
[exec] /bin/sh [GNU long option] [option] script-file ...
[exec] GNU long options:
[exec] --debug
[exec] --debugger
[exec] --dump-po-strings
[exec] --dump-strings
[exec] --help
[exec] --init-file
[exec] --login
[exec] --noediting
[exec] --noprofile
[exec] --norc
[exec] --posix
[exec] --protected
[exec] --rcfile
[exec] --rpm-requires
[exec] --restricted
[exec] --verbose
[exec] --version
[exec] --wordexp
[exec] Shell options:
[exec] -irsD or -c command or -O shopt_option
(invocation only)
[exec] -abefhkmnptuvxBCHP or -o option
[exec] Result: 2
I think all you really want to do is to execute the "ls" command?

Hi,
to find out which ant you are using, simply type :
$ which ant
in your console.
To use another version of ant, for instance ant1.6.5, supposing you have
installed ant1.6.5 under /opt/apache-ant-1.6.5, set the following
environment variables :
ANT_HOME=/opt/apache-ant-1.6.5
export ANT_HOME
PATH=$ANT_HOME/bin:$PATH
export PATH
these 4 lines can be added at the end of your .kshrc or equivalent. If
you are using csh as a login shell, the syntax is slightly different.
setting ANT_HOME to the location of the ant distribution you want to use
is an absolute requirement.
setting PATH is a commodity.

Antoine
