Re: Ant and eclipse project's classpath variable

[Martin Gainty]

Good Afternoon Thiago- Whenever I install a new package I always set the PACKAGE_HOME lets say there is a new package called Eclipse..After I install and configure I set an environment variable to reflect base folder e.g. ECLIPSE _HOME then when I update the CLASSPATH to reflect the new Package all I have to do is include in the new env variable reflecting the new folder e.g. SET $CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:$ECLIPSE_HOME export $CLASSPATH This also allows you to redefine the home location of the installed package e.g. ECLIPSE_HOME without having to touch all the other configurations that use it since they reference ECLIPSE_HOME M- ********************************************************************* This email message and any files transmitted with it contain confidential information intended only for the person(s) to whom this email message is addressed.  If you have received this email message in error, please notify the sender immediately by telephone or email and destroy the original message without making a copy.  Thank you.     ----- Original Message ----- From: Thiago Souza To: user@ant.apache.org Sent: Monday, May 29, 2006 1:30 PM Subject: Ant and eclipse project's classpath variable Hi,        We've started creating build files for our projects, but we've found a problem. Most projects uses the eclipse "classpath container variable" (that feature that maintains the dependencies in a directory like entry). But then ant can't get these jars since only eclipse knows about them, making it difficult to automate builds. Does anyone knows a workaround for this?
