which is why when you spawn multiple JVM threads on a Windows box
requesting a Resource such as
-Delete Directory
-Create Directory
-Any other IO
with a forked JVM nothing physically happens until the forked JVM returns
In fact i I forked a VM in my old Ant Scripts I would have to put a timer in to wait to see if the action had in fact completed ..
My Rule: If you are absolutely need to manipulate a resource dont fork a thread Otherwise ok
If you need more granularity look at the task Java for big brother at http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/java.html

Thanks for that Henry,
It's not quite what I want to do, but it has given me a couple of ideas.
Your idea of defining a property is good, I can do this inside my task and
add or modify the property on the project then access it from the build
script at the end to print the message. The only problem is that I have a
controlling project that runs the projects for each individual component to
be built, and the property only gets set on the nested project. This
doesn't appear to have a parent property on the project class. Does it have
any concept of a parent in code? If so, does anyone know how to access it?
The second approach that occured to me would be to use a similar approach
but store the errors in a static member in my task and then have an optional
attribute to the task that triggered a dump of the contents. Does anyone
know if the <nant> task within nant creates a new process or do all
instances run in the same process? I know in Ant you could specify "fork"
which would run the nested Ant instance in a new instance of the JVM. If
so, that would preclude using static data, but if they all run in the same
process then I could get away with it.
Cheers,
Bill

I've worked around a similar problem which relates to the success of Nunit
tests (amongst other things) based on external sources. We have no control
over them, so they are prone to fail which would normally cause the build to
fail entirely. In this case, we may be aware that the external sources are
down, but still want the build to run (entirely) without just failing.
Without going into huge detail, the way I do most of it is with a combination of the <exec> task (to run the Nunit tests - gives a bit more control than the Nant task) and several generous chunks of C# script. The tests are run and output XML, some C# script then runs against that XML looking for failures and stores the result in a Nant property. The <exec> task has failonerror="false" so the build will continue regardless of failures.
As the last task in the build, it looks at a number of such properties (this
can be applied to template checking, Ndoc generation, FXCop etc) and then I
have another little piece of C# script which then writes a summary report
(something like 'Build Succeeded, but the following external tests failed
... There were the following warnings...' etc. You can also use a
conditional <fail> task to fail things deliberately at the end if you decide
it's all gone too wrong.
This is fine for a non-release candidate, the scripts also check for this, and are a lot more rigid in what passes and gets versioned and packaged for release.
Sorry if that's a bit vague - hope it helps :)
