No. When using <java> there's an "output" attribute to collect the process's output but it points to a file. AFAIK there's no way to have the <java> task's output logged when using Ant 1.5.x but that's what I would like to confirm... :-) > Then you should get the output via your listener. No. The listener only gets what the Java task logs as part of its internal functioning. It does not log the *process*'s output. Now, it seems this is now possible in Ant 1.6.2 by using the alwayslog attribute. That's what I wanted to confirm here with my first mail. > What "redirector" do you mean (as Ant has <redirector>s)?

But before venturing into having to change Cargo's dependencies to Ant 1.6.5 (and thus affecting all our users) I wanted to ensure that this is indeed possible now whether there's something I don't know about that would allow to log the process's output in Ant 1.5.x. > >The reason is that Cargo is a framework and while > >upgrading to Ant 1.6.x is good for Cargo it's less good for > >our users as they'll also need to change their dependencies. > > Yes, but maybe they already have a newer version. Sure. But that's still a change when they'll upgrade to a newer version of Cargo. > What about multiple Ant instances? That's a potential issue. The only solution I know of is to use a tool like jarjar to repackage libraries's paackges. > Inside your framework, Ant is only a > library. Right.
