I got you to google because I knew it had moved and I didn't remember
where... It just seems they haven't crawled it recently enough :)
Its actually at the bottom of the user guide.
Regarding the java:jar-resources missing... I'm pretty sure you'll find an
anser to that in the mail archive.
Cheers,
Brett

Googling the maven web site for root ClassLoader turned up
one promising page,
http://maven.apache.org/reference/developers/developer-guide.html.
However, the current page (generated 03 November) doesn't
even contain the word ClassLoader. Google's cached page (from
07 October) DOES mention it, at least in the context of
developing a plugin.
Now I get an INTERNAL ERROR:
Reference made to goal 'java:jar-resources' which has no definition.

You probably need to add a junit dependency to your project.
You might need to put it in the root classloader (google the
maven website).
Anyway, you can integrate your ant script into maven.xml
really easily. I'd recommend trying that. Actually, I'd
recommend the test plugin above all of these, although I'm
assuming this doesn't suite your needs.

Subject: problems running ant tasks from maven
I have an existing ant task set up to run junit. If I
invoke it from
the command line with ant test, it works fine. I want to
integrate
this into maven, so I added the following to maven.xml:
goal name=zzz
ant target=test /
/goal
When I run maven zzz it fails (error messages below). Why
would it
not run from within maven when it runs fine from the command line?
Thanks,
Daniel Rabe
BUILD FAILED
File.. file:/C:/KangaHermes/ file:/C:/KangaHermes/ Element...
ant Line.. 36
Column 24
Could not create task or type of type: junit.
Ant could not find the task or a class this task relies upon.
This is common and has a number of causes; the usual
solutions are to
read the manual pages then download and install needed JAR
files, or
fix the build file:
- You have misspelt 'junit'.
Fix: check your spelling.
- The task needs an external JAR file to execute
and this is not found at the right place in the classpath.
Fix: check the documentation for dependencies.
Fix: declare the task.
- The task is an Ant optional task and optional.jar is absent
Fix: look for optional.jar in ANT_HOME/lib, download if needed
- The task was not built into optional.jar as dependent
libraries were not found at build time.
Fix: look in the JAR to verify, then rebuild with the needed
libraries, or download a release version from apache.org
- The build file was written for a later version of Ant
Fix: upgrade to at least the latest release version of Ant
- The task is not an Ant core or optional task
and needs to be declared using taskdef.
Remember that for JAR files to be visible to Ant tasks
implemented in
ANT_HOME/lib, the files must be in the same directory or on the
classpath
Please neither file bug reports on this problem, nor email the Ant
mailing lists, until all of these causes have been
explored, as this
is not an Ant bug. Total time: 9 seconds Finished at: Wed Nov 05
