Maybe you can implement a condition to be used with Ant's core <waitfor>
task...

Thanks for responding.
But how do I make a conditional infinite loop with it ?
Is there an Ant task for infinite loop ?
ie
while (1)
{
sshexec_check_remote_process_on_remote_host
if (remote_process == dead)
break;
else
sleep 10 mins
}

As you said use the <sshexec> task.
Here's an example :
...
<property name="sshexec.host" value="" />
<property name="sshexec.username" value="" />
<property name="sshexec.password" value="" />
<property name="sshexec.trust" value="" />
<property name="sshexec.failonerror" value="" />
<property name="sshexec.timeout" value="" />
<property name="sshexec.command" value='ps -ef | cut -d" " -f5 | grep
11875'
/>
...
<target name="sshexec" description="SSHExec">
<sshexec host="${sshexec.host}" username="${sshexec.username}"
password="${
sshexec.password}" trust="${sshexec.trust}" failonerror="${
sshexec.failonerror}" timeout="${sshexec.timeout}" command="${
sshexec.command}" outputproperty="sshexec.outputproperty" />
...Use a condition to check that ${sshexec.outputproperty} !equals the
empty
string...
</target>
...

Hi
I have an ant script that needs to check the status of a process running
on
a remote machine and if the
process has stopped running, I like the Ant script the ability to know
that
and move on to the next step in Ant script.
Could someone here give a simple example on how to implement that ?
I have some idea of using sleep to periodically check for a remote
process
but
is there an Ant task or a workaround that I could implement to check the
process using ps ?
I'm not sure sshexec could help me with that.
Thank you all for your helpful tips and comments
