RE: launching Ant from a perl script

[John Cortell]

Indeed. The 'exit' fixes the return-code problem when launching the bat 
file from a perl script, but clearly, the 'exit' introduces a much bigger 
problem if you're just executing bat files sans perl. Definitely not 
something that should be added to run.bat in production! Thanks for the 
correction.

Putting a goto :eof at the end of the bat file does not fix the return code 
problem. No surprise there.

OK, well it looks like I have to make things work with runant.pl, as per 
Keith's suggestion. I'm having a problem there, too, now. (Unable to find 
tools.jar, and I have the JAVA_HOME env var defined. I'll have to 
investigate that. Hopefully I won't have to bother you folks again :-/)

You exit a bat file by "goto :eof".
