Hi there and thank you for responding; I downloaded and installed ant-optional-1.6.5-20.3.i586.rpm Which is the closest version I could find to ant-1.6.5-4jpp.noarch.rpm, it just contained ant-antlr
Ant -diagnostics still says optional tasks: not available The install put the ant-antlr jar into /usr/share/java rather than usr/share/ant/lib so I tried copying them there but didn't help. I tried forcing the library with ant -lib /path but same result. Any other suggestions?

You shoudn't need any extra libraries for a java6 jvm, as it has built in regexp code. -- Steve Loughran http://www.1060.org/blogxter/publish/5 Author: Ant in Action http://antbook.org/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
