First the simple question, then the one that possibly should be asked on
the developer list
Why would this not be working and still complaining it can't find a
class in the junit jar
<path id="junit.lib">
<pathelement
path="${junit.location}/ant-junit.jar"/>
<pathelement path="${lib}/tools/junit.jar"/>
</path>
<taskdef name="junit"
classname="org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.junit.JUnitTask"
classpathref="junit.lib"/>
especially since I comment out the taskdef and do the following....
---------------------------------------------------------
<!--generate string on what jars got included for debugging-->
<pathconvert dirsep="/" pathsep=" " property="temp.string"
refid="junit.lib" setonempty="true"/>
<echo message="junit=${temp.string}"/>
which tells me the exact location, so I go verify the locations and they
are there. What is more interesting is I have not ANT_HOME set. And I
don't have optional.jar not ant-junit.jar in ant/lib. Ps. Why is there
an optional.jar there in ant1.6.2?? I thought optional was supposed to
be gone. Optional.jar contained some of the same classes that
ant-junit.jar did.
Thanks for any suggestions here including pointing a stupid typo or
something. I keep staring at this. Just want to make sure it is
working for other people.
Thanks,
