Description

« Hide

since the various ant jars aren't on the system classpath (when CC is launched) the internal ant can't create those optional tasks. this makes it more or less useless as it doesn't even work with the sample project from our binary release.

this problem effects both the binary and source releases.

using an ant style launcher (~~CC-268~~) should allow us to more easily add the required jars to the system classpath (~~CC-400~~).

the mismatch should have no effect.

if you use antscript/anthome to use the bundled apache-ant-1.6.5 then you should have no problem using the optional tasks there, and as you are executing in a separate VM from CC there should be no classpath conflicts.

if you aren't using antscript/anthome and are instead using the internal version of ant -- the one on the CC classpath -- then there is a known bug with the internal version of CC not supporting optional tasks (~~CC-400~~).
