I recently upgraded to Ant 1.8.4 from 1.7.1.
I have noticed a problem with how stderr and stdout is handled in 1.8
compared to 1.7.1 for the <java> task. I have something like the
following:
<java classname="com.example.MyCommand"
fork="true"
failonerror="true">
...
</java>
The program normally outputs diagnostics to stderr.
I have ant invoked with the -e and -q options.
Under 1.7.1, this output was shown, but in 1.8.4, nothing is shown. If
I remove the -q option or use the -v or -d options to ant, the output is
shown, along with a bunch of other stuff I normally do not want to see.
If I add the attribute logError="true" to the <java> task, the output
shows as expected, at least for stderr. Any output to stdout is still
suppressed.
It seems -q now affects programs executed by Ant. Is this behavior
intended? Is there ability to have Ant code be "quiet", but programs
executed still have stdout and stderr print?
