Building with Maven & xpatch Ant Task

[Robin Wyles <ro...@robinwyles.com>]

Hi,

I am in the process of setting up Maven to build my cocoon 
applications. Using 
http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/HowToBuildAndDeployCocoonWithMaven - all 
works smoothly.

Now I would like to integrate my cocoon.xconf patches into the Maven 
build and so have attempted to follow Ralph Goers' methods outlined in 
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-users&m=110127493922331&w=2.

I have created a jar from the $COCOON_HOME/tools/src/anttasks folder 
and added this to my local Maven repository and declared the jar as a 
dependency for my project. With this is in place I run the build and 
get:

taskdef class XConfToolTask cannot be found
	at 
org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Definer.addDefinition(Definer.java:236)
	at org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Definer.execute(Definer.java:162)
	at org.apache.tools.ant.Task.perform(Task.java:341)
	[...]

OK, I assume that perhaps the XConfToolTask class is missing some jar 
dependencies, so I add the xml-apis.jar and the xalan-xxx.jar as a 
dependency to my Maven project. These jars are added OK, but I still 
get the same error. Can anyone who has managed to get this working 
(Ralph?) shed any light on what jars I need to add to my project to get 
this to run, assuming this is the actual problem?

I notice that Maven still uses Ant 1.5.3 (I think) whereas Cocoon uses 
a newer version - might this be the problem?

Thanks,

Robin
