Constructor Summary

ExecuteJava()

Method Summary

void	execute(Project project) Execute the Java class against the specified Ant Project.
int	fork(ProjectComponent pc) Run the Java command in a separate VM, this does not give you the full flexibility of the Java task, but may be enough for simple needs.
boolean	killedProcess() Get whether the process was killed.
void	run() Run this ExecuteJava in a Thread.
void	setClasspath(Path p) Set the classpath to be used when running the Java class.
void	setJavaCommand(Commandline javaCommand) Set the Java "command" for this ExecuteJava.
void	setOutput(java.io.PrintStream out) Deprecated. since 1.4.x. manage output at the task level.
void	setPermissions(Permissions permissions) Set the permissions for the application run.
void	setSystemProperties(CommandlineJava.SysProperties s) Set the system properties to use when running the Java class.
void	setTimeout(java.lang.Long timeout) Set the timeout for this ExecuteJava.
static void	setupCommandLineForVMS(Execute exe, java.lang.String[] command) On VMS platform, we need to create a special java options file containing the arguments and classpath for the java command.
void	timeoutOccured(Watchdog w) Mark timeout as having occurred.
