Hello, I am having a problem running a jar file which worked before i created the different package directories.
The directory looks like this; root | |- - - src | | | |----ie | |--- comp | |---tool [all *.class] | |- - - images [all *.gif] | |- - - ant-files [ant.jar] | |- - - classes | | | |----ie | |--- comp | |---tool [all *.java] | |- - - lib [ ProjectName.jar] | |- - - build.xml My build.xml looks like this; <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project name="xxxx" basedir="." default="compile"> <property name="src.dir" value="src"/> <property name="classes.dir" value="classes"/> <property name="images.dir" value="images"/> <property name="ant-package" value="ant.jar"/> <property name="ant.dir" location="ant-files" /> <target name="compile" description="Compiles the Task"> <mkdir dir="${classes.dir}"/> <javac debug="on" deprecation="on" srcdir="${src.dir}" classpath="${ant-package}" destdir="${classes.dir}" /> </target> <target name="jar" description="JARs the Task" depends="compile"> <jar destfile="${ant.project.name}.jar" basedir="${classes.dir}"> <fileset dir="." includes="ant-files/*.jar"/> <fileset dir="." includes="${images.dir}/**"/> </jar> </target> <target name="run" depends="jar"> <java classname="AntTool" classpath="${ant.project.name}.jar; ${ant-package}" fork="true"/> </target> I have two problems - one is that the compile target works fine - however when i execute the run target i get "NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/tools/ant/taskdefs/Ant which is being caused by a class in the classes directory that looks like import org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Ant; import org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Property; import java.io.File; public class HelloWorldTwo extends Ant{ private File dir; public HelloWorldTwo() { System.out.println("HelloWorldTwo called"); } When i remove the extends Ant from the file it works fine. Before i created the subdirectories this worked fine. Is it a build.xml error or a syntax error when calling either javac or java. Please - need help on this.
