One solution is to use ant-contrib's <trycatch> task:
1) Direct usage:
<trycatch>
<try>
<!-- Your code here -->
<mail message="Success" ... >
</try>
<catch>
<mail message="Failure" ... >
</catch>
</trycatch>
2) If you need the failure message in the mail (in combination with
ant-contrib's <if>):
<trycatch property="errormessage">
<try>
<!-- Your code here -->
</try>
<catch>
</catch>
</trycatch>
<if>
<not><isset property="errormessage"/></not>
<then>
<mail message="Success" ... >
</then>
<else>
<mail message="Failure: ${errormessage}" ... >
</else>
</if>
See http://ant-contrib.sourceforge.net/tasks/tasks/index.html for more
details.

Subject: How to run an ant target on success/failed build
From: p2008 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
To: user@ant.apache.org
Date: 23/07/2008 06:36
I need to be able to trigger running a specific ant target when the build
succeeds, and another one when it fails. This will be used to send out an
email indicating the status of the build.
I have done this in the past in nant (.NET) which has a built in property
called nant.onsuccess and one called nant.onfailure.
Is there something similar in ant, or any does anybody know how to do this?
Thanks!
