You probably need to use the XML escape sequence "&amp;"

Hope this helps

Hi,

I'm trying to use the exec task to issue a shell command, whose output=20
to stderr and stdout I'd really like redirected to a file and the=20
deleted, as it is not relevant and is corrupting my build report. So
this is what I run on the command line:

phpunit --log-xml somelog.xml MyCoolTest &>test.dump

On the shell it works fine, but when put to ant exec task I get this
error:

The entity name must immediately follow the '&' in the entity reference.

Can anyone please tell me how to get around this? I tried escaping the &

with \, but that's not working either :o( Thanks in advance for any
help.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
