I used to use a script for ant that adds junit.jar to the classpath. Since Debian Sarge, it works out of the box, as Christian said.
Thanks for the encouragement. After another round of getting the long, well meaning and utterly useless Ant messsage about a task not found, this time because Cygwin $HOME is not Java user.home and therefore ~/.ant/lib isn't searched for jars, I finally solved this by adding "-lib ~/java/lib" to ANT_ARGS, thereby also making the setting of optional.lib.dir in build-local.properties obsolete. My .antrc is now more than 50 lines! Next question: I used to have old (maintenance branch) jars for FOP and Batik in the repository, which causes compilation problems. Therefore it might be a good idea to include only specific fles rather than *.jar in the classpath set. WDYT? J.Pietschmann
