Ant Input Task not working through Eclipse [message #243105]

Hi all,

A similar message to this was posted last year, but i can't seem to find
any replies to it, so I am re-stating the query.

Has any one tried to use the ant input task to take user input in the
Eclipse
IDE using Eclipse 3.0 M8 and the bundled version of ant (1.6.1 I think)?

I tried to do that but nothing prompts to ask the user for input and
the build fails with java IO Exception stating that it failed to read
input from console. There doesn't seem to be a way to enter anything
from console.

I know that the inputhandler must be implemented, but I thought that this
had already been done by the Eclipse development team and that by default
the input task should work properly. Are there any specific ant settings
that need to be changed within Eclipse to get it to work...maybe I am just
using the input task wrong.

Any ideas and suggestions would be appreciated..
Thanks,
Andrew.

Set the Ant build to run in the same build as Eclipse.
See the JRE tab of the Ant launch configuration.

See bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=45484
