Hello,

I got your id from one of the site, where you had suggested solution
regarding using the ant-contrib. I have been facing the same issue for few
days and have been trying to resolve it.

Please send your questions to the list so other people can reply as
well and the question&answer reach more people, hopefully preventing
future questions.

The error that I get is:
***************************************************************************************
D:\Projects\Ant-trials\ant-tasks\BuildTestEnv.xml:42: Could
not create task or type of type: for.
:
<snip/>
:
****************************************************************************************
I have the ant 1.6.3 and ant-contrib 1.0b3-bin on my machine. I have copied
jar file of ant-contrib in to ant/lib .

This is how I am using the "For" task in my build.xml file

 <target name="useoffor">
  <for param="i" begin="0" step="1" end="5">
       <sequential>
         <echo>i is @{i}</echo>
        </sequential>
     </for>
  </target>

To use "for" task do i need to define any thing else also in my build.xml
file ? Please let me know where am I going wrong.

Maven doesn't use your locally installed Ant/Ant-contrib (which is
what I think you are referring to). The link in my original reply
shows you exactly how to use Ant-Contrib in an Ant task. (Well, the
example is for 'antlr' but I'm sure you can see how it would work for
'ant-contrib'.)

That link was:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-antrun-plugin/classpaths.html

I haven't checked whether a newer ant-contrib is available now in any
of the Maven repositories so you may still have to put it in your
local repository or use Proximity (or something like it).

Thanks a tone in Advance,

Cheers,
Hilco
