| Running .app on Mac OSX | Running .app on Mac OSX 2007-06-12 - By Paul Barnes-Hoggett
Hi all, I have an ant script that's been working on Win XP, and I'm trying to get it working on a Mac.
Basically, I want to run an app (its a swf player) that writes contents out to a file, then closes. Ant waits till the process has finished, then reads the file. So, on Win XP, this works:
<target name="runTest" description="runs the test harness" depends="compileTest"> <exec executable="${debugPlayer}" spawn="no" > <arg line="'${testHarness.swf}'"/> </exec> </target>
But from what I have found on a mac, I have to use the 'open' command like this:
<target name="runtestosx" description="runs the test harness"> <exec executable="open" spawn="no" > <arg line="${debugPlayer}}"/> <arg line="'${testHarness.swf}'"/> </exec> </target>
The problem is that the ant script continues when the 'open' command completes, not when the app actually closes. Does anyone have any suggestions for how I might attack this problem? Quite new to ANT, so any help would be much appreciated
Thx
PBH
