Is it really that unhelpful when complete?

It most probably is some sort of classloader issue to begin with,
that's also the reason why it works when you use <java> directly.

Java 1.4 has this new feature that snips "over-long" stack-traces,
which causes them to be less than optimal in complicated reflection
situations like Ant invoking your test methods.  If possible, can you
try a 1.3 VM instead?

actually, I massaged the code into a place that works in ant and outside 
of ant now.  Sorry, I am going to plead lazy on this one as I have a 
million other tasks to do.  Normallly my curiosity kills me and I would 
have to find the bug in ant or what I was doing wrong.  I may still do 
that in a week or so.  My hunch is that reflection had a problem looking 
at my inner class.  I probably just needed to make it public.....I am 
pretty sure of this since the inner class was the actual subclass of 
TestCase that was being run.  The outer class was a TestSuite that just 
created many TestCases.(Had to do this to hook into another test framework).
thanks,
dean
