I have used <loadfile> with nested filter readers inside, like <tail>
because my expected failure string was supposed to be at the end, and
regexp filtering, to extract just the error status. If the resulting
property was empty, the external process didn't have error, otherwise
my property contained the error count.
Sounds like it was simpler than your situation though, since I
expected only one specific string, and at the end. I don't have this
Ant code with me to share right now, although I have posted something
similar I believe (at least a version that read CVS tag names using
the same Ant techniques.) --DD

Hello all,
Here is what I am trying to implement to identify if my build process has
failed.
For e.g this are the contents of the input file:
abcd
xyz
what
why
Rebuild All: 1 failed, 0 skipped
new world
Rebuild All: 0 failed, 0 skipped
techno
- Read this file to search for string "Rebuild All: 1 failed, 0 skipped" and
see how many failures were there.
*The problem I am finding is*
- I am using regex to perform the pattern matching to check if there were
any failures. Since the line could appear any no of times in the file, i
don't know how shall I implement that.
- Regex takes a string as an input, how can I pass a file to it or there is
any other task that I shall use.
Here is how I am using regex for an input string.
<target name="searchstring>
<regex property="failure.nos"
input="Rebuild All: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 skipped"
regexp="Rebuild All: ([0-9]) failed, ([0-9])"
select="\1"
casesensitive="false" />
<echo>${failure.nos}</echo>
</target>
Thanks a lot in advance,
- Dharmesh.
note: I am sorry if it's a stupid question but I am a novie user/memeber of
