Newbie; Sending VC++.NET build output to cmd window

["White, Jeffrey" <JW...@knighttrading.com>]

Hello,

I'm using the exec task to run devenv.exe to build MS Visual C++ solutions and projects. I would like the output messages of these builds to go to a file AND to the cmd window from which the ant target was called. Is this possible, and if so, how?

Here's what I'm doing now, which only outputs to the specified file and does not appear in the cmd window:

<exec dir='.' executable='devenv'>
    <arg line='../../Solution.sln /build debug /project ${ant.project.name} /out ${output.dir}/${ant.project.name}_log.txt' />
</exec>

If I use the following (with the "/out ..." argument omitted) the ouput still does not appear in the cmd window:

<exec dir='.' executable='devenv'>
    <arg line='../../Solution.sln /build debug /project ${ant.project.name}' />
</exec>

However, if I manually type the command that the above code generates, the output is directed to the cmd window.

So, to quickly restate the question: How do I get build output to the cmd window AND to a file?

Thanks in advance,

Jeff White
