Hi Deron, -cp will add entries to the classpath - as "java" does. It´s implemented in the Launcher [1] (why it´s not documented via "ant -h"?) in September last year [2], so it must be introduced with Ant 1.6.3 [3].
Maybe the wrapper script (which uses -cp) is from 1.6.3+ and the implementation is older. * see what´s in $ant.home * try a java -cp $ant.home/lib/ant-launcher org.apache.tools.ant.launch.Launcher -version (use the unix-correct syntax for $ant.home !)
