Ignore errors from exec-maven-plugin

[Eric Rotick <pc...@gmail.com>]

Hi All,

I'm having a problem getting the exec-maven-plugin to support my
requirements and I hoped the list might be able to help.

I need to run a binary application to tickle some hardware into life before
I run a test. This application exits with various status codes to indicate
certain aspects of the hardware. Unfortunately, as they are not always zero,
they are getting interpreted by the exec:exec plugin as an error which stops
the run.

Is there a way to tell the plugin to ignore errors in a similar way to the
onError directive of the sql plugin?

Thanks.

it seems to reasonable to support ignoreOnError. Pleaes file an Jira
with a patch which will get approve quicker if there are interests

It's quite simple really.

You create a shell script which always returns an exit status of zero and
then call the binary application within that.
