With that macro definition you also could use the other available nested
elements:
<execMyProgram>
<!-- examples from <java> -->
<arg value="arg1"/>
<jvmarg value="-Xrunhprof:cpu=samples,file=log.txt,depth=3"/>
<sysproperty key="DEBUG" value="true"/>
<classpath>
<pathelement location="dist/test.jar"/>
<pathelement path="${java.class.path}"/>
</classpath>
<!-- example from <exec> -->
<redirector outputproperty="redirector.out"
errorproperty="redirector.err"
inputstring="blah before blah">
<inputfilterchain>
<replacestring from="before" to="after"/>
</inputfilterchain>
<outputmapper type="merge" to="redirector.out"/>
<errormapper type="merge" to="redirector.err"/>
</redirector>
</execMyProgram>
