Hi,
To my mind this sounds like a ANT problem rather than something to do with
Jenkins (although it could be manifesting through Jenkins). Have you tried
calling the ANT script directly from the command line?
Another question - is the problem running ANT it's self, or is the problem
when ANT tried to compile/run/test your code? What I mean is not only does
ANT run inside a VM, but it also creates VMs to do it's work. Is it the
ANT's VM that has the classpath problem or is it the child VM's that have
the problem?
