capturing javac failing

[Stuart Barlow <sb...@peopledoc.com>]

I want to send a mail if the javac task fails in my ant based build.
Is this possible?

Thanks.
Stuart.

Yes, using a BuildListener, it might be a little bit tricky
though. Let me see, if Jyve works today, yes:

See
<http://jakarta.apache.org/jyve-faq/Turbine/screen/DisplayQuestionAnswer/action/SetAll/project_id/2/faq_id/16/topic_id/196/question_id/741>
for a start.

You'll probably want to track which task is currently running to see
whether it was a javac task that caused the BuildException if there is
one.
