[ANT 1.6.5] junitreport task using taskdef

[BOUSQUET Jeremie <Je...@gemplus.com>]

Hello,

Following this article:
http://ant.apache.org/faq.html#delegating-classloader-1.6

... I removed ant-junit.jar from ANT_HOME/lib, and taskdefed junit task as follow, which worked very well :
        <taskdef name="junit" classname="org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.junit.JUnitTask">
            <classpath>
                <pathelement location="${myrepository}\ext\apache\ant\1.6.5\ant-junit.jar"/>
                <pathelement location="${myrepository}\ext\junit\junit\3.8.1\junit.jar"/>
            </classpath>
        </taskdef>

By the way I'm using junitreport task which needs ant-junit.jar as well, so I had to taskdef it also this way :
        <taskdef name="junitreport" classname="org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.junit.XMLResultAggregator">
            <classpath>
                <pathelement location="${myrepository}\ext\apache\ant\1.6.5\ant-junit.jar"/>
                <pathelement location="${myrepository}\ext\junit\junit\3.8.1\junit.jar"/>
            </classpath>
        </taskdef>

... but this does not work. 
I get following error when executing junitreport:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/tools/ant/taskdefs/optional/junit/XalanExecutor
        at org.apache.tools.ant.ProjectHelper.addLocationToBuildException(ProjectHelper.java:539)

        at org.apache.tools.ant.launch.Launcher.main(Launcher.java:67)

This class in my opinion is from ant-junit.jar, so I don't understand why it can find ant-junit.jar, junit.jar (because junit task works), and why for junitreport it can't find a class in ant-junit.jar ...
I thought maybe it was looking for xalan stuff, and reported error only on XalanExecutor class if this is dynamic class loading, so I added all xalan-j_2_7_0 stuff (serializer.jar, xalan.jar, xml-apis.jar, xercesImpl.jar) in my taskdef but it didn't work better ...

I searched bugzilla and archived user list before posting (maybe badly ? Hope not ;) ).

Any help is welcome,

Thanks,
