What does it do when it doesn't work?
For me, the -X switch showed that there was a CNF exception for an oro
FTP class. I had to put this in my project.xml:
<dependency>
<groupId>ant-contrib</groupId>
<artifactId>ant-contrib</artifactId>
<version>20020829</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>oro</groupId>
<artifactId>NetComponents</artifactId>
<version>xxx</version>
<properties>
<classloader>root</classloader>
</properties>
</dependency>
The NetComponents JAR file is not at ibiblio, so I added it to our
company repo. The version 'xxx' I just added because there was no
version number associated with the JAR file.
In retrospect, the ant-contrib part may not be required. It looks like
the Ant FTP class is loaded automatically by Maven from
ant-optional-1.5.3-1.jar. I had to add the <classloader> property
because it looked like Ant's FTP class was loaded in the root
classloader, but the NetComponents JAR was loaded by the Maven
classloader. I know the <classloader> is deprecated, but I wasn't sure
how else to get it to work.
I did this in a plugin, so I added this to my plugin.jelly:
<ant:taskdef name="ftp"
classname="org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.net.FTP">
<ant:classpath>
<ant:pathelement path="${plugin.getDependencyPath('ant-contrib:ant-contrib')}"/>
<ant:pathelement path="${plugin.getDependencyPath('oro:NetComponents')}"/>
<ant:path refid="maven.dependency.classpath"/>
</ant:classpath>
</ant:taskdef>
before invoking the "ftp" task. For a maven.xml file, you wouldn't use
${plugin}. I think you'd use ${context}, but I'm not positive.
Again, you may be able to drop the whole ant-contrib part.
