Hi,
The antrun-plugin by default only provides the core ant tasks. If you
need additional tasks you need to include the jar containing the add-on
tasks to the <dependencies/> section of the plugin definition in your pom.
<propertyfile> is an optional ant task and is contained in
ant:ant-optional [1]. As you can see the newest version available in
central is 1.5.3-1 whereas the current antrun-plugin uses ant-1.6.5. I
don't know if the two versions are compatible. If not you either need to
create an upload-request for ant-optional:1.6.5 or install it in your
local repository.

I've found that when using the maven-antrun-plugin, there are certain
ant tasks that are unknown and cannot be used. I've looked for needed
jars, but not found them. I've looked for, but not found references to
this problem. Here is are a pom and ant file that illustrate the
problem. I would like to know how to fix this. There are other tasks
that do not work and several "builtin" properties that are undefined.
I've just used <propertyfile> as an example.
Running "ant -f install.xml installTarget" succeeds and creates two
files in the basedir.
Running "mvn install" fails
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR

[INFO] Error executing ant tasks
Embedded error: The following error occurred while executing this line:
C:\Temp\install.xml:26: Could not create task or type of type:
propertyfile.
Ant could not find the task or a class this task relies upon.
I'm using maven 2.0.5 and ant ant 1.6.2.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
