Hello,
one way to do this is to use error and output
attributes of <cvs> task (quote from [1]):
output - the file to direct standard output from the
(cvs) command.
error - the file to direct standard error from the
(cvs) command
So you can store the error in a text file, than load
that file as a property and check whether it
<condition>[2] whether contains a given error message.
Here is the pseudo code:
<cvs command="checkout"
cvsRoot=":pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvspublic"
package="my_module"
dest="${checkout.dir}"
error="${cvs.error.file}"
/>
<loadfile property="cvs.error.msg"
srcfile="${cvs.error.file}"/>
<condition property="cvs.error">
<contains string="${cvs.error.msg}"
substring="<cvs_error_msg_that_might_be_returned>">
</condition>
The problem in this approach is that you should find
all possible cvs_error_msg_that_might_be_returned.
Well, you can also do the following: if the error file
is created, then obviously there is an error while
checking the module out. Instead of trying to find the
exact error, mail the whole error file :)

Ivan
