The ANT classloader places all in-proc tasks in a special "isolation" mode where only java.* and javax.* classes are visible to tasks. So, anything starting with "sun." is not accessible, even though it is in the bootstrap rt.jar or what have you.
Perhaps someone from the dev team can confirm or refute this and explain why this is done. I fail to see the advantages. Vlad.

I am using a jdbc:odbc driver in an SQL task, the driver is in the system classpath, tested and confirmed. Even with the optional classpath attribute in the SQL task I still get the not found error: D:\build_folder\ux_dev02\ant_buildfiles\dev2_to_staging2.xml:26: Class Not Found : JDBC driver sun.jdbc.odbc.JbdcOdbcDriver could not be loaded <target name="sql"> <sql driver="sun.jdbc.odbc.JbdcOdbcDriver" url="jdbc:odbc:label_db" userid="" password="" > select * from *; <classpath> <pathelement location="d:\jdk_1.2.2\jre\lib\rt.jar"/> </classpath> </sql> </target> Thanks.. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
