Hi Jan,
You are forgetting to bind the xmlns namespace to a URI.
<project xmlns:example="antlib:a.b.c" .../>
<taskdef resource="a/b/c/antlib.xml"
uri="antlib:a.b.c"
classpath="jars/example.jar"/>
<example:hello/>

I created an antlib for a bundle of tasks/macrodefs. Including via

which means the build is not reliable after a checkout on a clean
machine [1] or
- modify the start command (ant.bat; %ANT_OPTS%;
%USER_HOME%/ant_{pre|post}.bat) which makes
that machine different from the other in the team.
I would prefer having the antlib in the project directory and bind the
antlib with the given
classpath inside the buildfile.
<typedef resource="antlib:..." uri="ccm"
classpath="../../build/antlib.jar"/>
<ccm:start user="${user}" pwd="${pwd}" database="${db}"/>
this results in
The prefix "ccm" for element "ccm:start" is not bound.

I think this is because the error occurs while parsing and the <taskdef>
would be executed after that.
Does anyone see a possibility to load the antlib from inside the
buildfile?
