Hi,
nant's exec task waits until program terminates to check the returned
exit code to fail when exit code <> 0.
Please add span="true" to exec task then it will work.
You can use "pidproperty" to get the process id when you want to save it
for stopping the webserver at the end of your script. (IMHO you will
need some external tools like sysinternals pskill.exe for that)
But you don't need cmd.exe here. You can start it directly:
<target name="start">
<exec program="C:\Program Files\Common
Files\Microsoft Shared\DevServer\10.0\WebDev.WebServer40.EXE"
spawn="true" pidproperty="ws40.pid">
<arg line="/port:2864" />
<arg line="/path:c:\webservices" />
</exec>
<echo message="${ws40.pid}" />
</target>
