It looks like the <available> task tries to load the class in a new
classloader. Of course - doing so loads all it's super classes too - so you'd
need to also add catalina.jar to your classpath for the <available> task.

Thanks Tim,
That is exactly what I was looking for, but I still can't get it to
work, and it seems that the <available> task is somewhat broken. Instead
of just checking if the class is contained in the jar it also tries to
resolve all of its dependencies, so this is what I get when using ant -d:
>>>>>
Finding class org.apache.catalina.valves.FastCommonAccessLogValve
Loaded from
/Users/novotny/Jakarta/jakarta-tomcat-5.5.9/server/lib/catalina-optional.jar
org/apache/catalina/valves/FastCommonAccessLogValve.class
Finding class org.apache.catalina.valves.ValveBase
[available] Could not load dependent class
"org/apache/catalina/valves/ValveBase" for class
"org.apache.catalina.valves.FastCommonAccessLogValve"
[available] Unable to load class
org.apache.catalina.valves.FastCommonAccessLogValve
>>>>>>
I can't see any flags that would tell it to not check for dependencies..

Thanks-- unfortunately by default (at least on Unix) that file is
not executable so it wouldn't even execute by default.
Has anyone actually created an ant task or can give me some ant
logic for doing Tomcat version detection for 5.5? Here's a snippet
that worked for Tomcat 4 and Tomcat 5.0.X that was fairly easy:
<if>
<available file="${appserver.home}/conf/Catalina"
type="dir" prope
rty="tomcat5"/>
<then>
<echo message="Detected Tomcat 5"/>
</then>
<else>
<echo message="Detected Tomcat 4"/>
</else>
</if>
Thanks, Jason

Hi,
I'm trying to update my build script to do some conditional
checking
to see if I'm deploying my code to Tomcat 5.5 or using an older
version.
Is there something (like a particular file or directory) I can check
reliably that would indicate that I'm using 5.5 versus an older
version?
Look at %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\version.bat or version.sh depending on
whether you are on Windows or *nix, if you're on Windows and don't
have version.bat then you need to download the zipped distribution and
now thw windows installer.
