http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20080 would like to have a task which can kill another task by its task id Summary: would like to have a task which can kill another task by its task id Product: Ant Version: 1.5 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows NT/2K Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: Other Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is a request to add an ant task which would kill a running task by its id. The idea is that some servers when started will run forever when other parallel tasks are finished. This creates the problem that ant would be running forever if such a server has been running within a target and prevent ant from continuing on wiht other tasks. This is particularly useful if a forked Java task can be killed by another java task. If there is a way to do this within the current version of ant, please let me know. Thanks, Sincerely George Wu
