Path cannot find tools.jar from within Eclipse

           Summary: Path cannot find tools.jar from within Eclipse
           Product: Cactus
           Version: 1.5
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Ant Tasks
        AssignedTo: cactus-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: simon.gibbs@virginmobile.com


This is specifically concerning the cactus ant tasks run from within Eclipse. 
This Bug was raised by request after a detailed discussion in Cactus Users.

As I understand it Eclipse isn't playing by the rules and is running Ant from 
within a JRE JVM instance rather than a JVM anchored to the SDK, with access to 
tools.jar. This is exasperated by some code within Cactus 
(AbstractJavaContainer according to Google) that makes various assumptions 
regarding the location of the file. Result is that tools.jar cannot be found.

For your analysis I include comparative output from my buildfile launched from 
the commandine and from Eclipse. Clearly my build is still not working but as 
far as I can tell that is another issue I will have to reasearch.
