Hi there

I've just started using ant and junit task

I have a test suite that I usually run from within eclipse and always worked

one of these tests uses a custom class loader

now I see that if I try to run the test with custom class loader from
console (i.e., using junit.textui.TestRunner) everything's fine and all
the 3 test methods of the test case run successfully...  if I use a
graphical interface (i.e., junit.swingui.TestRunner) I get a
ClassCastException that is due to the fact that some classes are loaded
with different class loaders...

now I found the way to solve this problem when running junit directly: as illustrated in the junit FAQ I put the

junit/runner/excluded.properties

in my CLASSPATH and added lines in this file so that my classes are loaded through the system class loader.

However, the problem still exists if I run the ant task. I think the problem is the same in that the same test never returns (and I see no output on the screen).

I'm using this target

<target name="junit" depends="tests" description="--> run junit tests">
<junit printsummary="withOutAndErr" haltonerror="on" haltonfailure="on">
                <formatter type="plain"/>
                
                <test name="...mytest..." haltonfailure="no" outfile="result">  
                    
                </test>
                <classpath refid="...mypath..."/>
        </junit>
    </target>

where mypath ensures that my excluded.properties is loaded first

am I doing something wrong, or should I use a specific option?

thanks in advance
        Lorenzo
