Ant question

[deepstar]

Hey all

I have a simple app which requires a couple of jar files residing in
it's /lib directory. I'm trying to compile the app using Ant (i'm a Ant
newbie) but it complains that it can't find my jar files, how can I
make Ant aware of the jars in my /lib directory when using it to
compile my project?

Here's my short build.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project name="test" default="compile" basedir=".">

<property name="src" value="src"/>
<property name="build" value="build"/>

<target name="init">
<mkdir dir="${build}"/>
</target>

<target name="compile" depends="init">
<!-- Compile the java code -->

<javac srcdir="${src}" destdir="${build}"/>
</target>
</project>


Thanks!

Try putting your JAR path/filename into the "classpath" arttibute
(you'll need to add it) to your javac block:

<javac srcdir="${devel.home}/src"
destdir="${build.devel}"
includes="com/**"
classpath="c:/lib/my.jar"
debug="on"
optimize="off"
deprecation="off"/>

This should allow ANT to find your JAR.
