I had the same issue yesterday so the solution is still fresh in my mind.
I'm using Eclipse 3.1.1 with Ant 1.6.5 so I'm going to assume that the
instructions for 3.1.1 will be the same as for 3.1 and whatever version of
Ant you are using.
You have a decision to make about the placement of your e.jar file:
A. You can put it in the 'lib' directory beneath Ant -or-
B. You can put it somewhere else that is more convenient to you.
There is no strong reason to prefer A over B or vice versa. I tend to put my
extra jars within Ant's 'lib' directory but that's just me. If you are going
to go with Option A, use your command prompt or operating system GUI to put
e.jar in the 'lib' directory beneath Ant. In my case, the path is
E:\eclipse\plugins\org.apache.ant_1.6.5; the 'lib' directory is directly
beneath that location. If you want to go with Option B, you don't need to do
anything else right now.
Then, within Eclipse, go to Window/Preferences. In the Preferences tree,
select Ant and expand the tree beneath it; click on Runtime. Now in the
Classpath page of the Runtime settings, make sure that the Ant Home Entries
contains the path that points to your Ant plugin; in my case (Eclipse
3.1.1), that is E:\eclipse\plugins\org.apache.ant_1.6.5. (You might have a
slightly older version of Ant so maybe your plugin is org.apache.ant_1.6.3,
for example.) If your Ant Home Entries don't point to the Ant plugin
directory on your system, click the Ant Home button and use the directory
browser to adjust the Ant Home value until it points to your Ant plugin.
To verify that you did this correctly, expand the Ant Home Entries branch of
the tree and verify that the jars listed underneath the ant plugin are the
same as the ones that you see in the 'lib' directory of your Ant plugin,
using your command line or operating system GUI. All of the same jars should
be present. If you chose Option A, you should see e.jar in this list,
otherwise, it won't be there.
If you chose Option A, you can click on OK to close the Preferences window;
then try the Ant task which uses e.jar. Remember, you may need to write a
Taskdef if the task is not one of the ones in the core and optional tasks
lists in the Ant Manual.
If you chose Option B, you need to make your e.jar visible to Ant. You do
this by clicking on the 'Add External Jars' button in the Classpath tab of
the Ant Runtime preferences. Use the directory navigator to point to e.jar,
wherever you put it. Click on OK to close the Preferences window; then try
the Ant task which uses e.jar. Remember, you may need to write a Taskdef if
the task is not one of the ones in the core and optional tasks lists in the
Ant Manual.
