Description

The following example (notice the typo in </Label/>):

<Alloy>
  <Window>
    <Label>Hello</Label/>
  </Window>
</Alloy>

shows that the Alloy compile arrow is showing when running appc alloy compile directly:

Hmm, I was spending some time to look into it but looks like not only error output but also some of standard output are ignored. For me it prints out like below. sometimes it lose more.

I suspect something wrong in Node.js output pipe when it's on nested commands.

I have noticed that updating to latest sdk (I used 5.2.0.v20151110230635) blows away this issue...I'm not sure exactly why but resolving for now :((?)

Verified using: Windows 10 Pro Appc CLI Core: 5.1.0 Appc CLI NPM: 4.2.2 Ti SDK: 5.1.2.v20151216190036 Using the code provided, when using appc run the build provides the Alloy compile error, which matches the output of appc alloy compile --platform windows *Note* If this ticket is reopened in the future, test with different platforms, iOS & Android, as it may not be Windows specific but rather down to appc run itself Closing ticket
