Hello,
For ANT task that spawn a seperate process (<javac> and <exec> come to mind) there are attributes to allow you define 'environment variable' that will be applied to the process that the task will run in. The ANT Manual for these two tasks are quite helpful Hope that helps, Ninju ----- Original Message ---- From: Saladin Sharif <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: user@ant.apache.org Sent: Thursday, November 1, 2007 7:51:48 PM Subject: How to set an environment variable through Ant? I am just curious whether there is a clean way to set environment variables through ANT. You see, before running my Ant script, I am currently setting my environment variables through a shell script, and I aslo have a batch script version for when running Ant on windows. I would like to get rid of the shell script / batch script, and just set those environment variables directly in my Ant script (build.xml). Is this something possible with Ant? Thanks in advance, -Saladin ********************************************************** * Saladin Sharif * e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * Visit homepage @ http://gaia.ecs.csus.edu/~sharifs ********************************************************** __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
