Subject: execute script in background with ANT

Hi, 

I am running script in background with exec task in ant file. But the issue
is ant target waits for the script execution to complete. 

But ideally, I want script to execute in background and move further other
targets in build.xml. 


<exec executable="/bin/bash" >  
        <arg line='-c "runprocess.sh > out.out 2 > err.txt < /dev/null &"'
/>  
</exec>  
<echo> "Done............."</echo> 

Any help?
