Hello all, Here is what I am trying to implement to identify if my build process has failed.
For e.g this are the contents of the input file: abcd xyz what why Rebuild All: 1 failed, 0 skipped new world Rebuild All: 0 failed, 0 skipped techno - Read this file to search for string "Rebuild All: 1 failed, 0 skipped" and see how many failures were there. *The problem I am finding is* - I am using regex to perform the pattern matching to check if there were any failures. Since the line could appear any no of times in the file, i don't know how shall I implement that. - Regex takes a string as an input, how can I pass a file to it or there is any other task that I shall use. Here is how I am using regex for an input string. <target name="searchstring> <regex property="failure.nos" input="Rebuild All: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 skipped" regexp="Rebuild All: ([0-9]) failed, ([0-9])" select="\1" casesensitive="false" /> <echo>${failure.nos}</echo> </target> Thanks a lot in advance, - Dharmesh. note: I am sorry if it's a stupid question but I am a novie user/memeber of this group.
