Don't know if this will help you, but are you aware that you can use to
string together commands onto one line... this is at least true on Windows
2000, not sure about NT.
From the command reference:
The ampersand () separates multiple commands on one command line.

Wouldn't net use z: \\server\share get you what you need? You could
use the exec task to map the drive then use copy

OK. I have resolved that Ant will not do this properly.
However, this can
be done in a batch file. So now the question I have is, how
do I get a
newline with the echo task?
target name=write_bat
echo file=c:\antdir\test.bat message=pushd
\\server
Has anyone had any luck using the Win 2000 programs, pushd and popd? I'm
trying to use it in my build.xml but it's not working.
build.xml:

exec executable=pushd
arg line=\\${server}\${testdir}\/
/exec
exec executable=popd/
/target

Most likely they're built-ins rather than executables, so you'd need to
exec DOS's command shell, with pushd/popd as args to it.

Diane is correct. It would look something like:
target name=pushpop
exec executable=cmd /c
arg line=pushd \\${server}\${testdir
process directory.
If you need pushd/popd only to change into another dir and do a quick
command or two from there, the cmd /c pusd ... other command syntax
may do the trick.

BINGO! That's why ant's implementation of exec is so twisted. People at Sun
are looking into fixing the JVM for java.lang.Runtime.exec() by adding a way
to set the subprocesses
Anthony,
What exactly are you trying to achieve?
pushd and popd are builtins to the Windows shell. This is why Ant cannot
execute them directly. The normal way around this would be to actually exec
cmd.exe and ask it to run the built-in.
In your case, however, the pushd and popd commands would
