Class Exec

public class Exec extends Task

Deprecated: since 1.2. delegate to Execute instead.

Executes a given command if the os platform is appropriate.

As of Ant 1.2, this class is no longer the implementation of Ant's <exec> task - it is considered to be dead code by the Ant developers and is unmaintained. Don't use it.
