ant doesn't use

[Stefan Thull <st...@s-thull.de>]

Hi ,
I want to use ant instead of the following comandline
set classpath=D:\myJava\gnu.regexp-1.1.4\lib\gnu-regexp-1.1.4.jar
java -jar makedocj.jar -d foo.pdb foo.txt

the commandline works.
The buildfile I use is:
> <project name="MyProject" default="compile"  basedir=".">
> <target name="compile">
> <java jar="makedocj.jar" fork="yes" >
> <arg value="-d foo.pdb foo.txt"/>
> <classpath>
><pathelement location="D:\myJava\gnu.regexp-1.1.4\lib\gnu-regexp-1.1.4.jar"/>
></classpath>
> </java>
> </target>

It seems, that ant didn't use the <arg> line, because the output is
the same as the command without arguments.

What went wrong?

I work on Win98 SE with ant 1.4.1


Thank you very much in advance!

<arg value=""> is for single arguments, but in your example you are actually
passing 3 arguments and using 'value' causes it to be sent as a single one.

Use <arg line="..."/> instead, in this case.  Or separate it into three <arg
value="..."/>'s.
