Resolved: I just stumbled across the "other way" I was seeking, which is to use -lib, instead of -cp.
ANT_ARGS=-noclasspath -logger com.ptc.tools.build.PTCLogger -lib L:/tools_vs/lib/BuildSupport-ant.jar -----Original Message----- From: Murray, Mike [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, December 04, 2006 12:02 PM To: user@ant.apache.org Subject: ANT_ARGS=-noclasspath -logger -cp This looks like a bug to me, but am I overlooking some other way to accomplish this, besides setting the env classpath to the one jar that contains the custom logger class? (I've used a modified ant.bat for years to work around this, and I'm trying to get rid of my hacks.) When defining -noclasspath and -cp for the -logger class (see ANT_ARGS below), it fails with "The -cp argument must not be repeated". Since the -noclasspath is not processed by ant.bat, two -cp arguments are passed, as can be seen at the bottom. (Seems to me the best way to get rid of the problem would be to implement the enhancement requested by bug 36958 <http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36958> .)
