<arg value="x"/> is interpreted as a single argument, even if "x" happens to contain spaces. In your case, you actually have two arguments: "-o" and "filename", so you need to specify it like this: <arg value="-o"/> <arg value="${out.dir}/${main.outfile}"/> Cheers, Joe --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
