Is anyone using the latest Ant version to run the River jtreg tests?
I'm asking because of the following comment on the Commons Developers
mailing list:
"Some change in Ant has broken the property handling in the Jelly/Ant
integration. By manually replacing jars in my local repository I found
out that the tests pass with Ant 1.8.0 but fail with 1.8.1.
Given that Ant's property handling has changed dramatically in 1.8.x and
Ant even marked this as a backwards incompatible change I'm rather
surprised it still works with 1.8.0."
I had not used Ant for a while when I started trying to get involved in
River, so I downloaded the latest.

river.jar defines the directory is where the most of the jar files
created by the build process live. This doesn't affect jtreg directly
however, the files needed for the jtreg tests are moved into the
JTlib-tmp directory.
This is defined by the jtlib.tmp property.
I wonder if there's a problem with the hyphen or mixed case for the
JTlib-tmp directory?
It's a long shot but that's the directory where the missing class files
originate, otherwise it might have something to do with the -cpa: option.
Cheers,

Do you know anything about "river.jars"? It seems to be used in
setting classpathref, and my errors do look very classpathish.
