--- Comment #1 from Stefan Bodewig <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 2008-11-14 03:57:31 PST --- actually, things are a lot worse - and a lot more difficult to fix. Throw in an <exec> task and all bets are off http://ant.apache.org/faq.html#input-makes-exec-hang There is a recommended way for reading an input's tasks input from a file and that is to use a different InputHandler. Your customer shouldn't use stdin redirects at all, this is not a supported use-case for input (and thus I could simply claim it is a bug). What you should use is a properties file with the answers to your different input tasks (the keys of that property files are the input's prompts) and a PropertyFileInputHandler. I know you said you may not be able to change things on your side, but this is at least as much a "you are using ant in a way that it doesn't support" as a bug. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
