Apache ant 1.7.0 As soon as build is done the main build file sets the classpath which includes certain jars. Know what I am trying to do is before even importing those jars i am trying to check if they were present in the project folder or not. If they were delete them and copy newer version from a FTP location and then set the classpath. I hope this makes sense. Can you suggest a work around.
