library dependencies question

[Erik Price]

I am following some instructions for using ant to build and install a J2EE webapp, and have been referred to use certain Ant tasks that do not ship with Ant by default. To use these tasks, the instructions say to put "catalina-ant.jar" in the "lib" directory of my ant distribution.

I do not wish to bother my system administrator with this task, and while searching the ant documentation for a user-level alternative, I found this tidbit:

"The following libraries are needed in your CLASSPATH or in the install directory's lib directory if you are using the indicated feature."

This seems very similar to the instructions for using the custom Ant tasks mentioned above. Does this mean that instead of having to put "catalina-ant.jar" in the ant distribution's "lib" directory, I can simply make put this JAR file in my $CLASSPATH?

Thank you in advance for your help.



Erik
