Didn't try with ant 1.8.2 and also no further investigations since my last post in September 2010 > I finally gave up and am using a Jython script block to do a "os.chdir" if I > detect the paths are messed up. > I actually do two dir checks/fixes for each ant antfile call (if I have to > change the working dir for the build.xml that gets called, I also have to > undo it). sounds interesting, could you provide more details, some snippets ? Actually i'm using groovy for scripting purposes after switching from javascript and lately from (j)ruby, so there should be similar possibilities. > I'm trying to avoid external bat files and shell scripts to try and keep > things simple. i dynamically create exec task with executable java.exe via <groovy> task. Not very elegant but it works..
