*** shadow/381 Thu Feb 1 04:04:43 2001 --- shadow/381.tmp.17324 Thu Mar 15 05:28:14 2001 *************** *** 16,18 **** --- 16,30 ---- | DESCRIPTION | If you add a relative path of jar-archives to the classpath when you start ANT (let's say ..\..\lib\ant.jar) and your project base directory is on the drive level (c:) or in the first subdirectory (c:\jboss) then you get an BUILD FAILED error with this message: The file or path you specified (..\..\lib\ant.jar) is invalid relative to P:\jboss + + + ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2001-03-15 05:28 ------- + Are you talking about a <classpath> data type or your system CLASSPATH? + + If you mean <classpath>, well relative paths in Ant are (almost) always + interpreted as relative to your project's basedir. If this is not correct for + your current application, you'll have to change the basedir attribute or + use an absolute path. + + Talking about CLASSPATH, well at leat on Unix relative entries in a PATH are + interpreted at runtime - relative to the current working directory.
