RE: Any way to log information other then through the command lin e?

[Jeff Jarrell <jj...@technovotics.com>]

Why not use the xmllogger, let it generate the xml log, then use the
xslt tag with a transforming xsl that filters out what you don't want.

I will be doing some work in this area in the next few days, so I see
how it goes.

Jay,

You can write your own listener to capture information from a specific
task
and then add that listener to ant. Read the section on "Build Events" in
the
ant documentation. If you have any questions, give me a yell.
