While developing/testing my build processes I like to have a dynamic view of my logfile as it is produced, so I use
BareTail controlled by the following lines in my ANT build file:
<forget>
<exec executable="cmd.exe" dir="${user.dir}" failifexecutionfails="false">
<arg value="/c" />
<arg file="C:\Program Files\BareMetalSoft\baretail.exe" />
<arg file="${user.dir}\logfile.txt" />
</exec>
</forget>
This works fine except for one small thing: the Continuum job hangs on to the log file view until it is closed.
I would like the Continuum job to terminate even though the logfile view is still open. Can anybody suggest a workaround for this?
