Hi all,

 

I have a task which runs an external program. That program generates
some output files to a specific folder. Once that is done I copy those
files to our output folder and delete the program's output folder.

 

<target name="doFoo">

    <exec program="foo.exe">

        <arg line="/o:./FooOutput"/>

    </exec>

    <copy todir="./ProjectOutput">

        <fileset ....../>

    </copy>

    <delete dir="./FooOutput"/>          <=== Would like this to run
even if the <exec> fails

</target>

 

 

If the external program fails, I would like to delete its output folder
to clean it up since those output files are not valid. 

 

Is there some way to specify that a sub-task should run even if a
previous task failed? Can I create another target where I execute the
program, then in the main target delete the folder and still have Nant
record a failed build? Is there a try/finally type of construct?

 

Thanks,

- Josh
