Hi all,
I'm trying to understand what appears to be a difference in the output captured
in the outputproperty attribute of the sshexec task, when the Ant script is
called via maven-antrun-plugin vs being called by a stand-alone Ant
installation.
I'm launching an external Ant script like so:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.7</version>
...
<configuration>
<target>
<ant antfile="build.xml" target="build" />
</target>
</configuration>
...
</plugin>
build.xml looks like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project>
<target name="build">
<antversion property="antversion"/>
<echo>Using Ant v${antversion}</echo>
<sshexec host="ansades51" username="emob" password="emob" trust="true"
command="echo hello" outputproperty="ssh.cmd" />
<echo>${ssh.cmd}</echo>
</target>
</project>
When calling build.xml via Maven, the output I get is:
[INFO] --- maven-antrun-plugin:1.7:run (default) @ ant.test ---
[INFO] Executing tasks
main:
build:
[echo] Using Ant v1.8.2
[sshexec] Connecting to ansades51:22
[sshexec] cmd : echo hello
hello
[echo] echo hello : hello
[INFO] Executed tasks
When I call build.xml via ant on the command-line, the output I get instead is:
F:\DevTools\workspaces\MLC\ant.test>ant build
Buildfile: F:\DevTools\workspaces\MLC\ant.test\build.xml
build:
[echo] Using Ant v1.8.2
[sshexec] Connecting to ansades51:22
[sshexec] cmd : echo hello
[sshexec] hello
[echo] hello
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 1 second
Notice how the ${ssh.cmd} property in the Maven case appears to have the
command prefixed with the output, whereas there is no such prefix in the
standalone Ant case. Is this expected?
I'm actually calling a fairly large Ant script that uses sshexec with
outputproperty in a bunch of places, and I'd much rather not have to change all
of the sshexec calls to then have to grep out the command output.
Any help would be much appreciated,
Cheers,
