you can
<echo>put your entire command line here</echo>
or redirect exec stdout with the ant exec task 'output' attribute e.g.
<exec executable="VBoxManage" failifexecutionfails="false"
output="Somefile.txt">
<arg line="controlvm ${vbox.vmname} poweroff"/>
</exec>
and view the contents of 'Somefile.txt' after execution
