Description _ mruflin 2001-11-28 18:31:28 UTC 
When the user tries to execute a non-Ant Script file with AntExecutor, a 
meaningless error message is displayed ("no AntProjectCookie").
The user has no chance to understand why his execution fails.

Maybe something like "Ant Script not found! Are you trying to execute a non-Ant 
file with the AntExecutor?" would give a hint how to fix the problem.
Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2001-11-29 11:40:06 UTC 
Makes sense. Actually I will probably just kill AntExecutor instead.
