<script language="beanshell" manager='bsf' > <classpath refid="sys.jars"/> System.out.println("message is " + message); </script> The jar file contains the exception $jar -tf bsf.jar |grep BSFException org/apache/bsf/BSFException.class yet when I run ant I get BUILD FAILED /files/java/build.xml:23: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/bsf/BSFException I can't see what is wrong, Any help appreciated. regards -- Dave Pawson XSLT XSL-FO FAQ. http://www.dpawson.co.uk --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
