Get the return code. If return code not 0 then call a common target which executes your own personal "kill-zombie-processes" task and then fails the build using <fail>. "kill-zombie-processes" kills all possible still running child processes. You need to know what the process names are. It's different than what you asked for but it works for me. My kill target: <target name="kill-zombie-test-processes"> <if><not><isset property="os_is_unix"/></not> <then> <echo message="Killing all existing test processes..." level="info"/> <exec executable="taskkill" failonerror="false"> <arg value="/F"/> <arg value="/T"/> <arg value="/IM"/> <arg value="tc.exe"/> <arg value="/IM"/> <arg value="analyst.exe"/> <arg value="/IM"/> <arg value="grsim.exe"/> <arg value="/IM"/> <arg value="CrashSender.exe"/> <arg value="/IM"/> <arg value="msiexec.exe"/> <arg value="/IM"/> <arg value="AWR_JobScheduler.exe"/> <arg value="/IM"/> <arg value="mpiexec.exe"/> <arg value="/IM"/> <arg value="svn.exe"/> </exec> </then> </if> </target> Replace .exes with your own. This works on windows. -Adam Bruss -----Original Message----- From: Vimil Saju [mailto:vimils...@yahoo.com] Sent: Tuesday, February 07, 2012 10:11 PM To: Ant Users List Subject: Regarding exec task Hi, I noticed that on windows, if I use the exec task to run a batch script which in turn starts other processes then if kill ant then the sub-processes created by the batch script still continues to run. I did some research on google and found that the default java implementation of Process.destroy does not kill the child processes created by a process on windows. I also found that there are some third party libraries like jvnet that provide the capability of killing all processes created by a process on windows. So I thought of somehow extending the 'Execute' class of ant to use the functionality of this 3rd party library, but I find that its difficult if not impossible to extend this class. I can't find a way to provide my implementation of Process class that does something different when its destroy method is called. Other core tasks such as java task directly create an instance of the 'Execute' class which makes it difficult to globally change how a process is destroyed within ant. If anyone can provide some suggestions on how this can be accomplished I will be very grateful. Currently the build scripts of my project uses the exec task to run a bunch of batch scripts in parallel which in turn execute sql scripts by starting off another process. I have written the ant script such that if any sql scripts fail then the ant build fails.When the build fails I notice that all the batch scripts have terminated as expected but the processes spawned by these batch scripts still continue to run. Any help is greatly appreciated.
