optional.jar is in my java.class.path but I can't make junit work from ant

[elise guedin]

Hello,

 

I thought I had the same problem as everybody else (namely a missing optional.jar in my lib directory) but after inserting that file I still can't make junit work

 

ANT_HOME = c:\jakarta-ant-1.3

 

I used ant -debug and 

java.class.path contains : C:\jakarta-ant-1.3\lib\optional.jar (that I downloaded from the web) and also c:\junit3.5\junit.jar

 

Also I used the target check_for_optional_packages to see if junit was present  :

Finding class junit.framework.TestCase
Class junit.framework.TestCase loaded from system loader
Setting project property: junit.present -> true

 

But when I want to use the tag junit I still have :

 

RunTests:
     [null] Could not create task of type: junit Common solutions are adding th
 task to defaults.properties and executing bin/bootstrap

BUILD FAILED

 

 Could not create task of type: junit. Common solut
ons are to use taskdef to declare your task, or, if this is an optional task, t
 put the optional.jar in the lib directory of your ant installation (ANT_HOME).

 

the defaults.properties file has junit in its optional tasks.

I also tried the source distribution without any success

 

I would appreciate any idea.

 

Thanks
