[exec] Anyone willing to discuss and/or review changes to commons-exec?
Hi folks,
+) commons-exec is nearly dormant but I need it ... ;-)
+) I made a few changes to commons-exec I would like to discuss
including further extensions
+) if I don't have SVN karma any longer I would need a commit proxy
CHANGES
==========================================================
+) Once upon a time I did a very simple thing - I tried to print a PDF
document using Acrobat Reader but it always returns "1" as exit code
which causes an exception. So I added the ability to define a list of
"good" exit values
+) I updated the regression tests to cover the watchdog (I committed a
bug fix to make watchdog working many moons ago)
+) Making commons-logging an optional package - commons-exec can be used
without any further dependencies now
TO DO
==========================================================
+) I need a variable substitution mechanism to expand user arguments and
environment variables for CommandLine, e.g. only pass in the file name
of a document to be printed and avoiding building the command line
within the application
+) are there any other bug fixes and extensions around to be added if
feasable
Thanks in advance
Siegfried Goeschl

Hi Matt,
this would help a lot - and you might be even familiar with bug fixes
applied to the ANT code base after the fork
Thanks in advance

Hello,
I am also an Ant committer and have at times been
fairly familiar with this code prior to its being
forked for [exec]. With the caveat that my time is
stretched unbelievably thin, to the point that I am
already scarcely able to handle my existing
committments, I may be able to look at issues/patches
if you log them in JIRA.
