waiting

[Geoff Meakin <ge...@isocra.com>]

Hi, sorry this is a bit of a newbie question

I am executing an external program (Installanywhere) which seems to 
return control to ant before its taken its lock of some of my files
Ant's next task is to copy these files to a different location, but
it complains that "access is denied"- and fails. Immediately however
I am able to manually copy these files to the location, so it cant
really be that they are uncopyable.

Is there a way of getting ANT to wait for n seconds before continuing,
or is this a bad solution- is there a better one?

Thanks in advance-
Geoff

(ANT 1.4.1)

Never enough - that's all I'm sure of.
