I am having a problem with ant, emacs and cygwin. I'm trying to restart tomcat as a
part of my build process, but after tomcat is restarted, it doesn't return control to
ant, and in turn emacs. Here are more details:
I have my build.xml file restarting tomcat with this target:
<target name="tomcat" depends="compile">
<exec dir="${src}" executable="c:/cygwin/bin/bash.exe">
<arg line="c:/service/tomcat/bin/restart.ksh"/>
</exec>
</target>
However, my restart.ksh script, which only consists of two commands (shutdown.bat and
startup.bat), hangs after it invokes startup.bat. Here is the compilation buffer:
cd c:/itsv3/Web-inf/classes/prj.el
ant -Dc:/itsv3/Web-inf/classes/SetSymbolList.java-buildfile build.xml tomcat
-Demacs=true
Buildfile: build.xml
compile:

*****************
... here it is waiting for me to close the new window that Tomcat started. After I
shutdown ant, then this will appear:
*****************
[exec] Result: 1
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 8 minutes 16 seconds
Compilation exited abnormally with code 131072 at Mon Jun 25 15:23:52
What can I change so that after startup.bat is invoked, it returns control to ant and
then in turn to emacs?
thanks in advance
Max
