The secure input handles ouput looks like this: Please enter the Tomcat Manager App admin password: customize: [echo] Starting Tomcat customization... The [input] is missing. The default input handler does has the input tag as prefix. The difference is that def input handler prompts on System.err. The Console docs do not reveal where the console is attached to. Anyway, this problem can be fixed. In that line http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/ant/core/tags/ANT_181/src/main/org/apache/tools/ant/input/SecureInputHandler.java?view=markup#l48 you see the readPassword with args is called. If you replace the line with: System.err.print(prompt); and now invoke reflectively the readPassword method without any parameters, this should work as the other input handler.
