Hi David,
Yes it is in my classpath but I decided to try your suggestion anyway. It
didn't make any difference. But what I realized is that it's looking for a
class that should be in ant.jar and so apparently, Eclipse does not include
a complete version of Ant even though it uses Ant. I downloaded and
installed a full copy and everything now works as advertised.
The lesson? Live and learn.
Thanks,
Rob
