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

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
