AW: Sending options to ANT task? Specifically the -q option to make it quiet

[jhm]

You cannot reconfigure the logger Ant uses.
You have to start a complete new Ant instance.

sample:

<project default="test">

    <target name="print">
        <echo level="info"  message="1-info"/>
        <echo level="error" message="2-error"/>
        <echo level="info"  message="3-info"/>
    </target>
    
    
    <target name="test">
        <echo level="info" >Call via 'ant'</echo>
        <ant target="print"/>
        <echo level="info" >Call via 'java'</echo>
        <ant2 antfile="./build.xml" target="print">
            <arg value="-q"/>
        </ant2>
    </target>
    
    <macrodef name="ant2">
        <attribute name="antfile"/>
        <attribute name="target"/>
        <element name="ant2-args" implicit="yes"/>
        <sequential>
            <java classname="org.apache.tools.ant.Main">
                <arg value="@{target}"/>
                <ant2-args/>
            </java>
        </sequential>
    </macrodef>
    
</project>
