facing problem while integrating ant with eclipse(2.1.1)
Hi,
I am trying to use an external ant script from eclipse (version 2.1.1) and facing hurdle at one step, I am not able to use the task "ftp" which comes with commons-net-1.1.0.jar. I am successfully using the tag with ant 1.6.1 but if I want to run the same script from eclipse it fails. <ftp> tag is directly not supported by apache-ant-1.6.1, u need to put one plug-in commons-net-1.1.0.jar under ANT_HOME/lib and it works fine.
Let me give a try to explain it little bit more......
I am using eclipse 2.1.1 which uses ant 1.5.3 internally. So, naturally this doesn't support the <ftp> which comes only with commons-net-1.1.0.jar. So, I referred this jar in the classpath of the eclipse's "external build tool" option, still did not work. Seems commons-net-1.1.0.jar needs commons-net.jar's help to be called or used. So, now I am pointing the eclipse classpath to whole of lib of ant 1.6.1 but still not working, in fact nothing comes to the console not even the earlier encountered massage which points to ftp task
"[ftp] BUILD FAILED: file:build_apBolton.xml:203: Could not create task or type of type: ftp."
Thanks & Regards,
satya

First I would encourage you to use the eclipse newsgroups for Eclipse
specific issues.
You can set Eclipse to use Ant 1.6.1 if you are willing to upgrade to
either version 2.1.3 or Eclipse 3.0.
In 2.1.3 you will need to set Ant home to point to your Ant 1.6.1 install.
Eclipse 3.0 ships with Ant 1.6.1
I would encourage you to move to Eclipse 3.0.
Then from
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=70236
>From my testing all I had to do to get the FTP tasks to work was to add
the
two required JARs to the Ant runtime classpath. No need to place the JARs
in
the org.apache.ant lib folder from my testing.
The JARs I added were:
jakarta-oro-2.0.8.jar
commons-net-1.2.2.jar
