Hi,

I am using Ant 1.8RC1.
I have a test.xml file, which is used to execute the same set of tests for 3 different application server environments. (ie in SUN, IBM and SAP). We call 3 different commands to run the tests in its corresponding environment.
Example:
 ant suntest
 ant ibmtest
 ant saptest

We set the application server specific path (sun.ejb.classpath, ibm.ejb.classpath, sap. ejb.classpath) in suntest, ibmtest and saptest targets.
These targets will call its corresponding targets (suntest.without.clean, ibmtest.without.clean, ibmtest.without.clean).
All these three targets will further call incontainertest, where we set the classpath by referencing the path defined in suntest, ibmtest and saptest targets.

The truncated test.xml file is given below.

  <target name="suntest"

We do set inheritRefs to true so that the called ant target will have references of all the path defined in the calling target, but still we get the following error when we run any test.

Reference ibm.ejb.classpath not found.

I do know that the followin warning is thrown in ANT 1.7


Warning: Reference ibm.ejb.classpath has not been set at runtime, but was found during build file parsing, attempting to resolve. Future versions of Ant may support  referencing ids defined in non-executed targets.

If I define these path ids just under the project level, this works, but my requirement is to define these path id's differently for different Application servers and hence, I cannot define them in a non-executed target.
Is there any way in ANT 1.8RC1, where we can set these path id's differently for different environments and then not get this error when setting the references to classpath.

Can use any conditional while setting the classpath?

Cheers,
Suman.N
