If I want to submit the ant -logfile <filename> option to Ant within Eclipse, I 
cant seem to figure out a way to do it.

Running ant just from the commandline, I can do the following if I want 
messages to be written to a file instead of to the command prompt:

ant -logfile build.log

and it works. I need to do the same within the IDE.

Have you tried adding "-logfile build.log" to the argument field?

Adding "-logfile build.log" to the argument field creates the build.log file 
but nothing is logged to this file.

Fixed in InternalAntRunner (core) and AntBuildLogger (ui).

Fixed so that -logfile works when "Show execution log in console" is turned off 
(changes to NullBuildLogger).

Verified.
Please update the build notes (jared).
