Hi All, I am wanting to use for-loop task that is available through ant-contrib.jar but I am getting the error message that is pasted below. By reading the old threads on similar problem (http://www.mail-archive.com/user@ant.apache.org/msg23803.html), I feel that this could be a classpath issue. Any suggestions to fix this problem?
Due thanks for any help! Ritu P.S. : I am using Eclipse IDE versions 3.3, Ant version 1.8.0, and ant-contrib-1.0b2. Error Message = BUILD FAILED C:\AMMA\Eclipse3.3\PDSL\Automate.xml:33: The following error occurred while executing this line: jar:file:C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/ritu/.ant/lib/ant-contrib.jar!/net/sf/antcontrib/antlib.xml:3: taskdef A class needed by class net.sf.antcontrib.platform.ShellScriptTask cannot be found: ExecTask using the classloader AntClassLoader[] Code Snippet = <project name="Automate" xmlns:ac="antlib:net.sf.antcontrib"> <typedef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antlib.xml" classpath="C:/Documents and Settings/ritu/.ant/ant-contrib.jar"/> <loadfile property="src" srcfile="${to}_0.pdsl"/> <ac:for param="line" list="${srcfile}" delimiter="${line.separator}"> <sequential> <mymacro line="@{line}"/>` </sequential> </ac:for> Diagnostics information = C:\AMMA\Eclipse3.3\PDSL>ant -diagnostics ------- Ant diagnostics report ------- Apache Ant version 1.8.0 compiled on February 1 2010 ------------------------------------------- Implementation Version ------------------------------------------- core tasks : 1.8.0 in file:/C:/Program%20Files/apache-ant-1.8.0/lib/ant.jar optional tasks : 1.8.0 in file:/C:/Program%20Files/apache-ant-1.8.0/lib/ant-nodeps.jar ------------------------------------------- ANT PROPERTIES ------------------------------------------- ant.version: Apache Ant version 1.8.0 compiled on February 1 2010 ant.java.version: 1.6 ant.core.lib: C:\Program Files\apache-ant-1.8.0\lib\ant.jar ant.home: C:\Program Files\apache-ant-1.8.0 ------------------------------------------- ANT_HOME/lib jar listing ------------------------------------------- ant.home: C:\Program Files\apache-ant-1.8.0 ant-antlr.jar (5747 bytes) ant-apache-bcel.jar (8749 bytes) ant-apache-bsf.jar (3931 bytes) ant-apache-log4j.jar (3047 bytes) ant-apache-oro.jar (39646 bytes) ant-apache-regexp.jar (3761 bytes) ant-apache-resolver.jar (4074 bytes) ant-apache-xalan2.jar (2293 bytes) ant-commons-logging.jar (3913 bytes) ant-commons-net.jar (85161 bytes) ant-jai.jar (22249 bytes) ant-javamail.jar (7855 bytes) ant-jdepend.jar (8265 bytes) ant-jmf.jar (6720 bytes) ant-jsch.jar (40120 bytes) ant-junit.jar (101222 bytes) ant-launcher.jar (12277 bytes) ant-netrexx.jar (9948 bytes) ant-nodeps.jar (402003 bytes) ant-stylebook.jar (2333 bytes) ant-swing.jar (7537 bytes) ant-testutil.jar (15121 bytes) ant-trax.jar (8371 bytes) ant.jar (1506140 bytes) xercesImpl.jar (1223877 bytes) xml-apis.jar (194354 bytes) ------------------------------------------- USER_HOME/.ant/lib jar listing ------------------------------------------- user.home: C:\Documents and Settings\ritu ant-contrib.jar (115287 bytes) ------------------------------------------- Tasks availability ------------------------------------------- image : Missing dependency javax.media.jai.PlanarImage sshexec : Missing dependency com.jcraft.jsch.Logger wlrun : Not Available (the implementation class is not present) scp : Missing dependency com.jcraft.jsch.Logger stlist : Not Available (the implementation class is not present) sshsession : Missing dependency com.jcraft.jsch.Logger starteam : Not Available (the implementation class is not present) stlabel : Not Available (the implementation class is not present) jdepend : Missing dependency jdepend.xmlui.JDepend stcheckin : Not Available (the implementation class is not present) stcheckout : Not Available (the implementation class is not present) ejbc : Not Available (the implementation class is not present) wlstop : Not Available (the implementation class is not present) ddcreator : Not Available (the implementation class is not present) A task being missing/unavailable should only matter if you are trying to use it ------------------------------------------- org.apache.env.Which diagnostics ------------------------------------------- Not available.

Because I need to write each matching line in a separate file, I am using a for-loop. A sample scenario: 1) Content of File.asl = readInt(x) readInt(y) readDouble(z) writeInt(x) sumInt(x,y) 2) Run ant script and extract lines with read* and write them to separate files. Contents of output1.asl = readInt(x) Contents of output2.asl = readInt(y) Contents of output3.asl = readDouble(z) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@ant.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@ant.apache.org
