specify a target to be executed if error occurs

           Summary: specify a target to be executed if error occurs
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.5.3
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core tasks
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: glennoph@yahoo.com


I am recording a log of the ant activity.  The last target will email a 
distribution list that the script completed successfully.  However, if there is 
a problem then the last target may not be executed.  I would like to define 
another target handle a failure of the ant script, so I could email a failure 
message. 

I looked at trycatch and that would be helpful but there are multiple targets 
in the main path and each would have to be wrapped with a trycatch.

Also, I would like to have the capability to print out a stacktrace to identify 
the statement that resulted in the failure.

Thanks for considering this.  Please let me know if anything is unclear or if 
the capabililty already exists.

Regards,
Glenn Opdycke-Hansen
