ClassLoader issues with Ant 1.6.x and the <junit> task
Hello fellow ant users. I have a problem with ant and junit that I am
pretty sure is a class loader problem. When I run the junit task on my
test cases I always get a ClassNotFoundException on my test case classes.
I am sure they are on the classpath so that makes me think it is a class
loader problem.
Here is what the error looks like when I run my ant build
Buildfile: build.xml

I get this error when I run the unit task from my build.xml file. Here is

After reading the ant FAQ about classloaders it sounds like I needed to
pull the ant-junit.jar and junit.jar classes out of the $ANT_HOME/lib dir.
That is why I added the taskdef for the junit task in the buildfile. That
did not work for me though.
So I get the above error regardless if ant-junit.jar and junit.jar are in
the $ANT_HOME/lib dir or not.
Also I did not start getting the warning about the junit task until I set
up a junit taskdef when I moved the jars out of $ANT_HOME/lib. I'm not
sure if this warning is a problem or not.
Another interesting error I noticed(I'm not sure if it is related to the
same problem) is that if I change fork="yes" to fork="no" in the junit
task attributes I get the following error
Buildfile: build.xml
Trying to override old definition of datatype junit
init:
compile:
unit:
[junit] Running
com.ibm.md.tse.dmiw.security.logic.SecurityControlTableLogicImplTestCase
BUILD FAILED
C:\build.xml:71:
org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.junit.BriefJUnitResultFormatter is
not a JUnitResultFormatter
So I am hoping someone out there can help me. I'm not sure what I can do.
Performing a Google search has produced many forum posts where this
problem is discussed but I have yet to find one where someone produces a
solution.
I forgot to mention I am running a 1.4.2 java vm
