[current sources] If the API user tries to run an ant target (using AntTargetExecutor), there is no possibility to change the name of the output tab that will be used for the build output. I see two possible solutions (without trying to be exhaustive): 1. Enhance the AntTargetExecutor.Env with possibility to specify the name of the output tab. 2. Enhance it so the API user can provide his/hers own InputOutput (althought I am not sure that this is a good idea).
Once again: correct component is ant
Prefer just ability to set the name; the Ant module does special things with InputOutput reuse.
No use case mentioned.
Cf. issue #63332: there might also be cases where the caller does not wish to create a progress task, or wishes to control its behavior somehow. TBD.
No recorded use case.
