3.1 M7: Ant External Tools do not work when running on a separate JRE [message #204094]

I'm working on a project that has ant targets to start and stop the
application server, in addition to the standard build targets.

I have many of the ANT targets mapped to external tools.

Recently upgraded to Eclipse 3.1M7, now these targets do not work unless
ANT is run in the same JRE as the workspace.

When attempting to run one of these external tools using a separate JRE,
the status text on the console tab goes to <terminated>, inmediately.
There is no output whatsoever in the console itself.

These same ant targets worked fine on Eclipse 3.1M5 (I never downloaded M6).

Another workaround if you are not using the Ant <input> task:
You can turn off "Set an Input Handler" on
the Main page of the Ant launch configuration.

I did have some entries with double quotes on my PATH variable. Got rid
of them, the problem went away. Thanks for the tip.
