Hello Antoine,
After all my tests on this taskdef, I found that an antcallback works in the
scope of 1 single build.xml file ONLY. If my 1st build.xml file makes a call to
a target in another build.xml which in turn does an exec on the host system, I
have no way of recovering the resultproperty="my.property" in the first
build.xml.
Example:
Caller code -------------------------------- build1.xml
<macrodef name="test-exec">
<attribute name="module-1"/>
<sequential>
<echo message="Test du module @{module-1} (lancement
target run-test)" />
<ant dir="${revue.dir}/@{module-1}" target="run-test"/>
<!--
<antcallback return="run-test.result"/>
-->
<echo message="Status of task run-test is
${run-test.result}" />
</sequential>
</macrodef>
Called code................................. build2.xml
<target name="run-test" description="lancement du test unitaire">
<echo message="lancement du test unitaire EvenementMetier!!" />
<exec dir="J:/RefonteAFC/Proto1.4/EvenementMetier/testunitaire"
executable="TestUnitaire_auto.bat" resolveexecutable="true"
output="dir.txt" resultproperty="run-test.result"
failonerror="false" vmlauncher="true">
</exec>
</target>
Thanks a lot for the pointers anyway... I hope I do find a solution to this
really....Its like saying that a Java object can recover the return value only
if the called method is defined in the same object.

Hello Saurabh,
look at using ant-contrib.
