Hi Chris,

Not sure what is the benefit of putting stylebook.jar in the
build.properties. It looks more complex than just putting it in
anthome/lib. I guess you want to keep your anthome/lib clean? (However
stylebook does not interfere with anything else). However, I don't mind!
:-)
Yeah, I know it doesn't really matter for Stylebook, I'm just trying to move towards what I personally consider a better practice for Ant build systems: not requiring the user to copy any libraries in $ANT_HOME/lib.

More important than Stylebook is Checkstyle. Since the version of Checkstyle I need to build Cactus is so bleeding-edge and incompatible with the previous released versions, I can't use the same checkstyle.jar for builds of Cactus and build of my other projects. But because the Cactus build requires checkstyle.jar on java.class.path, I sort of need to keep 2 separate installations of Ant.

Anyway, there is still a problem I think with the current implementation
of stylebook.jar in the build.xmls. The stylebook jar that is specified
in the global build.properties will *not* get passed to the
documentation subproject build. This is slightly complex to do as it
must be passed only if stylebook.jar is defined.
Hmm, not sure I understand. Why doesn't it get passed?
