Forked junit task not finding TestRunner in optional jar

[Dani Zweig]

I have been trying to get the junit task to work.  Below is a try at running
one of the junit sample test suites.

         <target name="tryjunit" depends="init">
                <junit printsummary="yes" fork="yes">
                       <classpath>
                          <pathelement location="${ROOT}/junit/3.5/junit3.5"/>
                            <pathelement location="${ROOT}/junit/3.5/junit.jar"/>
                       </classpath>
                    <formatter type="plain"/>
                    <test name="junit.samples.money.MoneyTest" outfile="test.results"/>
                </junit>
         </target>

It works correctly if fork="no".  However, if fork="yes", as in the above
snippet, I get the following error:

    [junit] Running junit.samples.money.MoneyTest
    [junit] java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
org/apache/tools/ant/taskdefs/option
al/junit/JUnitTestRunner
    [junit] TEST junit.samples.money.MoneyTest FAILED

Note that JunitTestRunner *is* in jakarta-ant-1.3-optional.jar, and that jar
*is* in the ant lib directory (or the fork="no" case wouldn't work either).

Is the classpath not being passed to the forked jvm?  (I tried passing it
via 'jvmarg', but that generated an "unrecognized option" error.)

advTHANKSance.
