Subject: how to get a process id from a spawned task?
MIME-Version: 1.0

Hello all.

Is there a way to get the process id (I'm dealing with a windows
system here, but I believe the question could be asked of both windows
an UNIX families) of a task that is spawned?  I have a java task:
  <java spawn="true" ... />
and I'd like to be able to echo the process id to the user (so that
they can kill the process if they so desire).

Is there a convenient way to get the process id?

Thanks
