ANT from jdk1.3->1.2.2 NULL problem

Ukasick, Aimee (MED, Adecco) Wed, 08 Aug 2001 07:03:33 -0700

Help! We recently had to switch our whole project from jdk1.3 to jdk1.2.2 to comply with an app server. We have been using ANT for months now, but when we switched to 1.2.2, ANT no longer works. A null pointer exception is being thrown by org.apache.tools.ant.ProjectHelper.parse. I've changed JAVA_HOME to point to jdk1.2.2, and I can compile using javac from a DOS box.

I am using ANT 1.4alpha, jdk1.2.2, and Windows2000.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance.
