Can anyone tell me why the exec task, whether or not spawned, hangs in
parallel calls? It works fine if I pass -DthreadCount=1. It appears
the higher the threadCount used, the quicker it will hang, since
-DthreadCount=2 works for a while, but threadCount=5 hangs immediately.
This apparently happens when two exec tasks are called simultaneously.
Using a forked java task in similar fashion, hangs the same way. The
parallel calls of BuildModule work fine when the macrodef uses the ant
task.
Thanks, Mike
