perfsonar development work

Hi,
According to the today's call, I found some information about running 
any application by ant.

We've been already using it.

There is <exec> task for ant. For example running "pwd" command in 
current directory and storing result to "base_path" ant 
variable/property will look like:

 ------------------------------------------------
         <exec executable="pwd"
              dir="."
              outputproperty="base_path" />
 ------------------------------------------------

So, I suppose the perl invocation will be like this:

 ------------------------------------------------
         <exec executable="perl"
              dir="./perl-scripts"
              outputproperty="preinstall-result">
           <arg value="preinstall-bwctl.pl"/>
         </exec>
 ------------------------------------------------

Of course it needs some investigation, but everything is here:

  http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/exec.html

Best regards

Maciej
