-----Original Message----- From: Halim, Salman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 04, 2001 11:05 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: command-line arguments hi, i have started using ant quite recently -- we're thinking of using its platform independent features to replace batch files and shell scripts (in part) rather than as an installation tool. toward that end, i wanted to modify the org.apache.tools.ant.Main class to set all command-line parameters following a lone hyphen (-) as properties (of the form 'arg1', 'arg2' etc.). any thoughts on this? good idea/bad idea/been done etc.? thank you in advance! -- Salman Halim Advisory Software Engineer, HP Bluestone Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum viditur.
