Hi, is there any chance I could turn off the error messages (java exceptions) being displayed on parse errors for example? I'm looking for something like "--silent" flag...

Thanks.

Hi Dan, thank you.

Thing is, I am building a php wrapper on top of yuicompressor. You are right, I definitely want to know whether it was successful or not. And I do know it by checking the return value of the php's "exec" function. And on error I'm throwing php exception.

But on javascript parse errors it is not just returning failure, but also displaying the native java exceptions and I was unable to hide them even with using output buffer...

I thought about >dev/null but as this is part of a library, I'd like to have it work on windows as well. BTW, is there something similar to >dev/null on win?

Anyway, it's not that critical, it's more of a cosmetic issue...

Thanks.

Also, if you're still trying to detect a non-zero exit status (almost always meaning an error occurred), if you look at exec()'s third parameter (http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.exec.php):


You can pass a variable by reference and it will (as long as you've specified the second argument as well) be written with the exit status from the command.
