I'm having some difficulties with Subversion's Ant tasks.

I am on SUSE 9.0 which has the latest Subversion release of 1.3.
However, I am building with Hudson that is using svnkit which is using
a release 1.4.6 revision. The problem is I build with Hudson, it
creates a 1.4.6 compatible workspace, then I attempt to do something
in my Ant file, and I get the message that my Subverison client is too
old.

I went to subclipse and got the svnant task. This includes a
svnant.jar and a svnClientAdapter.jar. Apparently, the svnjavahl.jar I
am using is a 1.3 client version. According to the documentation,
svnClientAdapter.jar can use the svnjavahl, the svnkit, or the command
line.

I've removed the "svn" command from my path, and setup the following build.xml:

<project name="test" default="test" basedir=".">

    <!-- Subversion Setup -->
    <path id="svn.task.path">
        <pathelement location="${ant.home}/lib-svn/svnant.jar"/>
        <pathelement location="${ant.home}/lib-svn/svnClientAdapter.jar"/>
        <pathelement location="${ant.home}/lib-svn/svnkit-javahl.jar"/>
    </path>

    <taskdef resource="svntask.properties" classpathref="svn.task.path"/>

    <property file="${user.home}/.subversion/svn.properties"/> <!--
User Name & Pword -->

    <target name="test">
        <svn
            javahl="true"
            username="svnant"
            password="SNVant123">
            <cat
url="http://subversion.solbright.com/dev/modules/foundation/trunk/build.xml";
                destfile="foo.xml"/>
        </svn>
    </target>
</project>

I get the following errors:

Buildfile: build.xml

test:

BUILD FAILED
/solbright/tools/build/build.xml:18: Cannot use javahl nor command
line svn client

I have tried modifying the file to use svnjavahl.jar, but get the same
error. It only works if I put the svn command back into the PATH, so
it can execute via the svn command line. Unfortunately, that's 1.3,
and I need a 1.4.6 compatible client.

Has anyone else used the Subversion tasks in Ant? Any help in configuring them?
