Re: where is the problem?
Hi Aydin,
try putting the servlet (J2EE) classes in the classpath for the javac
task. The following page shows you how to do this under references (it
should look familiar):

You shouldnt be setting your classpath up this way. instead declare a
path that explicitly includes a copy of j2ee.jar that you have somewhere
in your project libraries.
<path id="j2ee.path" >
<fileset file="lib/j2ee.jar" />
</path>
then use it in compiles
<javac ... classpathref="j2ee.path" >

Thanks for everyone;
I have solved the problem.
The problem is all about the libraries (.jar files) that we have to add
the ant runtime which is in the
eclipse(window->preferances->ant->runtime)...
I used to add the related libraries like j2ee.jar... however whenever I
add those important libraries to the runtime enviroment and close the
window, every thing that I have added dissapears (as far as I
understood, ant envirement didnt include them!) ... but when I added
thoses libraries under the global entries, I have succeded... now
everthing stays :)...
it is a dramtic stiuation for a proffessional..
but I am still learning.. :)

Re: where is the problem?

Ant must be using a different environment then, because it can't find
javax.servlet
My advice would be to forget eclipse for now and get the build working
on the command line. How many javac's do you have on your system? Which
one is in your PATH? What is JAVA_HOME set to? If JAVA_HOME is set to a
J2SE installation there will be no javax.servlet in the classpath -
unless explicitly set in CLASSPATH or in the build file.
Eclipse may just confuse matters while you are learning Ant. Get back to
basics and make sure Ant is set up correctly. I only use eclipse for
code editing - Ant does the rest.
Good luck,
Barry

Thanks Barry,
But I have already added those paths to my enviroment and everything
(excep this) works smoothly.. how ever, it still resists about the
missing packages.. but I have them and can compile the java code on the
command promp, in the same directory..
