I thought using a custom Logger could solve your problem.
That logger would simply supress special messages.
But after failing tests I searched for that message:
Locator.getToolsJar() prints directly to SYSO:
public static File getToolsJar() {
... try to find tools.jar
if (!toolsJar.exists()) {
System.out.println("Unable to locate tools.jar. "
+ "Expected to find it in " + toolsJar.getPath());
return null;
}
This method is called by the Launcher very early in the startup process, where
all logging goes directly to STDOUT because the logging framework is not
initialized yet.
With that finding these possibilities come to my mind:
- pimp your Ant: overwrite the Locator class (copy and delete all syso-logs)
and place that before the Ant jars.
- filter STDOUT: instead using an AntLogger doing the filtering, you have to do
it somewhere else between Ant and your tool.
- enhance Ant: we introduce an additional if statement which evaluates System
properties (e.g. "ant -Dsuppress-tools-warning=true")
if (!toolsJar.exists()) {
if (!aVerySpecialSystemPropertyIsSet()) {
System.out.println("Unable to locate tools.jar. "
+ "Expected to find it in " + toolsJar.getPath());
}
return null;
}

import org.apache.tools.ant.*;
public class NoToolsWarningLogger extends DefaultLogger {
public static final String IGNORE_MSG_PATTERN = "Unable to locate
tools.jar.";
public void messageLogged(BuildEvent event) {
String msg = event.getMessage();
if (!msg.contains(IGNORE_MSG_PATTERN)) {
super.messageLogged(event);
} else {
System.out.println("tools-message suppressed");
}
}
