path task error output
I have Target init which sets the classpath. However I am getting an error
on the path task.
I've received this using netbeans and the commandline. I have ant1.3.
Error excerpt:
Could not create task of type: classpath Common solutions are adding the
task to defaults.properties and executing bin/bootstrap
javadoccing.xml [35] Could not create task of type: classpath. Common
solutions are to use taskdef to declare your task, or, if this is an
optional task, to put the optional.jar in the lib directory of your ant
installation (ANT_HOME).
Complete Output is below.
Code excerpt:
<classpath>
<path id="project.class.path">
<pathelement location="${build.dir}"/>
<pathelement path="${java.class.path}/"/>
<!--pathelement path="${pending.additional.path}"/-->
<!--pathelement location="C:\dev\junit\junit.jar"/ -->
<!--pathelement location="C:\dev\ant\lib\optional.jar"/ -->
</path>
</classpath>
Ideas? I have optional.jar and everything installed in my classpath or in
the ant/lib correctly. AFAIK.

T,
You could also define it this way:
Excerpt from property file
borland=c\:/vbroker411
borland.lib=${borland}/lib
Excerpt from Build.xml
<!-- set global properties for this build -->
<property file="./src/smallbiz.properties"></property>
<path id="core.library.classpath">
<fileset dir="${smallbiz.release}">
<include name="*.jar"></include>
</fileset>
</path>
<path id="orb.library.classpath">
<fileset dir="${borland.lib}">
<include name="vbjorb.jar"></include>
</fileset>
</path>
Then,
<javac srcdir="${smallbiz.source}" destdir="${smallbiz.release}">
<include name="${smallbiz.pattern.folder}"></include>
<include name="${smallbiz.pattern.idlgen.folder}"></include>
<classpath refid="core.library.classpath"></classpath>
<classpath refid="orb.library.classpath"></classpath>
</javac>
<javadoc packagenames="${smallbiz.javadoc.pattern.package}"
sourcepath="${smallbiz.source}"
destdir="${smallbiz.doc}"
author="true"
version="true"
use="true"
windowtitle="Dummy API"
doctitle="Dummy"
bottom="Copyright 2000 Dummy Corporation All Rights Reserved.">
<classpath refid="core.library.classpath"></classpath>
<classpath refid="orb.library.classpath"></classpath>
</javadoc>
</target>
Hope this helps,
Ed

<classpath> is not an Ant type. It is a nested element on some tasks.
Just define the path as you have done below, without the <classpath>
elements and then you can refer to this when you need a classpath. For
example, to use this in a compile you would use
<javac ...>
<classpath refid="project.class.path"/>
</javac>
