Description
Following the instructions (http://docs.codehaus.org/display/JETTY/Ant+Jetty+Plugin), I've made jetty launch from my ant build file. I run ant from the command-line, and I see several issues with the jetty/ant integration, although I may well be missing fixes for them:
1.) The Ant build does not fail if the Jetty server does not launch correctly
I've seen this if there already is a jetty server listening at the specified port. In this case, the jetty task returns but the ant build ends successfully.
2.) The jetty server instance is not terminated when the plugin task returns to ant. This causes jetty's termination trace to be mingled with ant's termination trace, which hides ant's termination status. The trace below shows this:
[echo] ============================================================
[echo] ============================================================
[echo] JETTY START-UP FAILED!
[echo] There already be a Jetty running on the port!
[echo] Check the log file!"

I've attached the relevant part of my build file.
I'd like to add the ability to fork the process that starts the server. If I'm using ant as my primary build tool (and not an IDE) then I have to stop the server to recompile / repackage the application. The scanning intervals is great, but it would be very helpful to be able to fork the process (and probably have a jettyStop task as well.
