http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11110 Taskdef cannot explicitly define the location of default optional tasks Summary: Taskdef cannot explicitly define the location of default optional tasks Product: Ant Version: 1.5 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the taskdef task, one uses the nested classpath element to define the location of custom tasks explicitly so that one's build is truly portable and so that one may put all 3rd party vendor libs in one area organized by vendor. Taskdef does not allow you to define the classpath for FTP, JUnit, or I imagine any of the optional tasks contained in optional.jar that ships in the lib directory of Ant 1.5. The classpath should be able to find these optional tasks as they are in the java.class.path, and also I have tried to copy the library and direct them to it with paths, filesets... within the classpath attribute, but Ant will not find the class. Even the available task cannot find them using explicit paths. This is an important feature towards making builds portable across environments.
