You probably want the ant-nodeps artifact.

 <groupId>ant</groupId>
 <artifactId>ant-nodeps</artifactId>
 <version>1.6.5</version>

I added one more dependency

<dependency>
            <groupId>org.apache.ant</groupId>
            <artifactId>ant-junit</artifactId>
            <version>1.6.2</version>
</dependency>

and still seeing the same results. Any pointers ??

Thanks,

I have simple ant file that has junit task and it executes fine using ant
1.6.2.

Now I am trying to call that ant script via pom file and I am getting an
error that junit task is not found.

C:\ncp\ncp\main\component\ClientTests\build\client\build.xml:117: Could not
create task or type of type: junit.

Ant could not find the task or a class this task relies upon.

This is common and has a number of causes; the usual
solutions are to read the manual pages then download and
install needed JAR files, or fix the build file:
 - You have misspelt 'junit'.
   Fix: check your spelling.
 - The task needs an external JAR file to execute
     and this is not found at the right place in the classpath.
   Fix: check the documentation for dependencies.
   Fix: declare the task.
 - The task is an Ant optional task and the JAR file and/or libraries
     implementing the functionality were not found at the time you
     yourself built your installation of Ant from the Ant sources.
   Fix: Look in the ANT_HOME/lib for the 'ant-' JAR corresponding to the
     task and make sure it contains more than merely a META-INF/MANIFEST.MF.
     If all it contains is the manifest, then rebuild Ant with the needed
     libraries present in ${ant.home}/lib/optional/ , or alternatively,
     download a pre-built release version from apache.org
 - The build file was written for a later version of Ant
   Fix: upgrade to at least the latest release version of Ant
 - The task is not an Ant core or optional task
     and needs to be declared using .
 - You are attempting to use a task defined using

 or  but have spelt wrong or not
   defined it at the point of use

Remember that for JAR files to be visible to Ant tasks implemented
in ANT_HOME/lib, the files must be in the same directory or on the
classpath


=================================

So I figured it out that probably maven is using wrong version of ant and I
checked it, it downloaded ant 1.6.5

========================================

Then I asked maven to use ant 1.6.2 in following pom file but it still
downloads 1.6.5. Any idea what is going on ??? How can I make sure that
maven uses 1.6.2 ??

Here is my pom file

4.0.0



    com.comp.cp
    cp-component
    1.0-SNAPSHOT



  com.comp.cp
  ClientTests
  1.0-SNAPSHOT

pom

  ClientTests



      junit
      junit
      4.3.1




    clienttests





        org.apache.maven.plugins
        maven-compiler-plugin
        2.0

          1.5
          1.5






        maven-antrun-plugin


            1

generate-sources







              run






            ant
            ant-antlr
            1.6.2










Thanks a lot in advance
