Here is the code I'm using - AntRunner.java - which attempts to spin up ant

public class AntRunner {

try { project.init(); }
catch (BuildException e) {
throw new Exception("The default task list could not be loaded.");
}
project = new Project();
try { project.init(); }
catch (BuildException e) {
throw new Exception("The default task list could not be loaded.");
}
// Set the base directory. If none is given, "." is used.
if (_baseDir == null) _baseDir=new String(".");
try {
project.setBasedir(_baseDir);
}
catch (BuildException e) {
throw new Exception("The given basedir doesn't exist, or isn't a directory.");
}
if (_buildFile == null) _buildFile=new String("build.xml");
System.out.println("_baseDir=" + _baseDir);
System.out.println("_buildFile=" + _buildFile);
try {
ProjectHelper.getProjectHelper().parse(project, new File(_buildFile));
}
catch (BuildException e) {

Hi

It looks like ant isn't finding some dependencies (xml parser?).
Since you don't tell us what AntRunner.java is doing, I suggest you take a look at bin/webtest.bat to look at how to setup the classpath before calling ant.

Hello all,It looks like I am missing a jar file but am not sure - I am getting this error while running java code that spins up an ant process.My script works when it is run from webtest.bat.When run from java.exe, I getC:\webtest\doc\doc\samples>java AntRunner

I am including webtest.jar in my classpath and taskdef.xml is in c:\webtest\lib - what's going on here?Thanks in advanceDoug
