Sorry - you were going on about there being no documentation about which
jars ant requires. It seems reasonably clear to me. Anyway, you can add jars
till you are blue in the face and it wont solve the problems you are having
src/main/org/apache/tools/ant/util/regexp/RegexpMatcher.java:57: cannot
resolve symbol
symbol : class BuildException
location: package ant
import org.apache.tools.ant.BuildException;
^
This class does NOT require the regexp.jar. It is not looking for
regexp.jar. I am not sure why you assumed that?
You have another problem (I assume it is related to cygwin). Have a look
here for some pointers
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ant-dev&m=97270138604695&w=2
I will try a cygwin setup tonight to see if I can reproduce your issue.
