RunShellScript doesn't trap error output

[jaboda]

I'm using RunShellScript to run a Ping on WIndows.

This works well if the host is working, but if it times out it pops up a ScriptMaster error and returns 'ERROR' instead of the Ping output.

I'm not good with Groovy but it looks like it's not trapping the error output.

Is there a way to do that with RunShellScript? Alternatively has someone created a Ping script for ScriptMaster?

It seems the same problem exists with the BaseElements Plugin as well (using BE_ExecuteSystemCommand).

You can not ping in Java as it relies on ICMP

The new version of BaseElements has changed the library used for BE_ExecuteSystemCommand and it now works, so I could remove my hacky workaround .
