Modify Ant. :-) The main difference is that e.g. <foreach> is implemented in ant-contrib.jar which is not part of Ant. So you have to do - add the jar to Ants classpath - taskdef the task With <ftp> it´s different. The task implementation is part of Ant! So - all needed jars have to be added to Ants classpath - implementing class is in ANT_HOME/lib/ant-commons-net.jar - needed external libs (oro, commons-net) - the task has to be taskdefs - is already done in ANT_HOME/lib/ant.jar!org/apache/tools/ant/taskdefs/default.properties Jan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
