But thats exactly the idea, or am I missing something?
The current default is to add all jars from lib/ to classpath. I would leave
this default instact, _unless_ restrictclasspath is set, in which cas

"restrictclasspath" won't work, because placing JARs into /lib is the designed
"extension point".

Stefan, this sounds like a reasonably good solution. I understand now that the
script and installation can live in different directories? Then its probably
good enough, thanks!

I rarely use Windows and stopped using Cygwin once "Ubuntu on Windows" became
an option. I'm not sure whether Cygwin symlinks actually work, you may have to
try for yourself.
But maybe you don't need a sy

Thanks a lot Stefan for all the helpful explanations.
Jan, does Ant work with Cygwin symlinks on Windows? Then this would be a
solution! Otherwise the build breaks for Windows.
I have more than 70 buil

It is common to have commands in /bin etc.
But it is also common to have symlinks here.
So why you don't unpack Ant (and the other tools) in their own directory and
create symlinks? /bin/ant --> /somewhere/ant/bi

Some of the jars contain so called optional tasks that depend on 3rd party jars
that are not distributed by Ant. Our users drop said 3rd party jars in the
directory and Ant picks them up - this wouldn't be

I totally understand your arguments.
At the same time I'm surprised that Ant (or any Java tools, for that matter)
would choose to behave that way. The directory layout with bin/, lib/ etc is
pretty stan

--- Comment #4 from Stefan Bodewig ---
I'm afraid Ant is simply not designed to be used that way. It uses all jars
from $ANT_HOME/lib and places them on its CLASSPATH. If you don't specify
ANT_HOME explicitly it will use the "ant" shell scripts
