Re: antrun does not do anything

I tried using antrun recently, too. I have a different problem, but have
gotten a little further than this.

Do you have your <ant> snippet in the <plugin> block? Mine looks like
this (some content omitted for clarity):

<plugin>
    <group />
    <artifactId />
    <version />
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <id />
            <phase />
            <goals>
                <goal>run</goal>
            </goals>
            <configuration>
                <tasks>
                    <ant antfile="[path]/my-build.xml">
                        <target name="my-task" />
                    </ant>
                </tasks>
            <configuration>
        </execution>
    <executions>
</plugin>
