Sharad, An old version of the Ant classes is being picked up. You will need to check two things.
1. Make sure ANT_HOME is pointing to the real ANT_HOME 2. Make sure your classpath does not contain an old ant.jar, or another jar which provides the old ant version (if someone bundled it). Probably try a clean classpath Conor > -----Original Message----- > From: Sharad Jain [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, 1 May 2002 10:47 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: accessing environment variables > > > Oops, > Its a typo.
