Jayaram,
I finally got it to work using maven 1.0.2 / ant 1.5.3-1!
It requires a bit of hacking.
First, edit maven.xml, and just before your <ant:ftp/> tag
add this one:
<taskdef
name="ftp"
classname="org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.net.FTP"
/>
The taskdef is required for maven to even recognize the ftp ant task.
If you don't supply it, nothing happens (I don't know why..).
This task is defined in ant-optional-${version}.jar,
which is loaded in the root classloader.
When you run maven -X now, you get the following nested exception:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/oroinc/net/ftp/FTP
The ant documentation states that the NetComponents.jar is needed
for the FTP task. The trouble is getting maven to see it.
You cannot just simply depend on it, since the taskdef
is run in the root classloader (where ant resides), and it won't
see any dependency (at least, that is my finding..)
So, next we have to make sure maven loads the NetComponents.jar
in it's root classloader.
First, get NetComponents.jar from this archive:
http://www.savarese.org/oro/downloads/NetComponents-1.3.8.tar.gz
and copy it to ${maven.home}/lib.
This will cause it to get loaded in the [root.maven] classloader,
but still doesn't work.
Then, edit ${maven.home}/bin/forehead.conf,
and add this line
${maven.home}/lib/NetComponents.jar
below this one:
${maven.home}/lib/log4j-1.2.8.jar
which makes sure that the class is available in the root classloader,
and thus available to ant.
Somehow I think this is documented somewhere... at least, it should be ;)
So, let me know if this solves your problem!
