Exec task does not fail inspite of non-zero error level

[Currimbhoy Shahyan <sh...@siemens.com>]

Hi,
 
I am using an ant script to trigger off my builds and unit tests but for
some reason I am unable to get the exec task to work properly.
My ant script contains the following code snippet:
<!-- Build component -->

<target name="build" depends="init">

<exec executable="${root}/BUILDLOCAL.CMD" failonerror="true"

output="${output.dir}/build.txt">

</exec>

</target>

 

All my BUILDLOCAL.CMD does is set ERRORLEVEL=50.

This should cause my build task to fail however for some reason my build
executes successfully.

Could you tell me what I am doing wrong. I was under the impression that
failonerror=true should cause a failure if errorlevel is non-zero.

 

Thanks in advance,

Shahyan.

I may be entirely wrong, been a while, but I think you need to 
"return 50" or "exit 50" to get the error code returned to ant...
