Re: Can Jelly Ant tasks be used with Ant 1.5.4?

[Paul Libbrecht]

That's classical ant class-loading hunt which is well know to be very delicate... I fear. Make sure you have all the dependencies of jelly and the taglibs in the classpath. Although not very good style, running "maven pack-fat-jar" will give you a jar that merges all dependencies). Dropping this into the base classpath of ant (within the lib directory of ant-home) should make things work.

I'm afraid the taskdef approach with a classpath may be very itchy...

hope that helps.

Ok, I see.

After installing both jars, I was able to get the taskdef to execute
without complaining (the taskdef specifies a classpath including both
jars).  However, when I tried executing "<jelly/>" in a target (because
I don't know what the parameters are), it failed with a
NoClassDefFoundError.  Unfortunately, it didn't tell me what class it
couldn't find.

Where is the documentation for the "jelly" ant task itself?  I see the
documentation for the Jelly tags that can call ant, but not for the ant

task.

The 'ant tag library' is this one:
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/jelly/libs/ant/

Get the jar from here:

http://www.ibiblio.org/maven/commons-jelly/jars/commons-jelly-
tags-ant-1.1.jar

Jelly has many 'tag libraries' available along with the core jelly tags.

And what is the "ant tag library"? I just searched all the

jar files

in the Ant 1.6.5 distribution, and it's not there.

It's in the ant tag library. So you'll need that and the

core jelly

jar file to do the taskdef.

What jar file is that class in? I can't find it in the

Jelly 1.0

distribution.  Googling for it hasn't helped much.

I haven't tested it but there's:
    org.apache.commons.jelly.task.JellyTask

hope that helps.

that should do the trick provided you have included all the dependencies in the classpath.

Ok, then is it straightforward to write a Jelly script to

do sql work,

that can then be easily executed from an Ant script?

David,

are you talking about the Jelly SQL Tag Library?

If so, the sql tag library is NOT a set of Ant tasks, it's

a set of

tags to be used within a Jelly script, not an ant

build file.

Does this help?

I've never used Jelly before.  I noticed that it has

some pretty

powerful SQL Ant tasks.  However, I'm limited to Ant

1.5.4 for now.

Will the Jelly Ant tasks work with Ant 1.5.4?
