Cameron:
If I understand correctly - what you need to do is to declare the
xsd2jibx as a resource with its associated dependencies.
For example - in your index.xml (or wherever you have xsd2jibx declared)
you could do something like:
<resource>
<info>
<group>xsd2jibx</group>
<name>xsd2jibx</name>
</info>
<dependencies>
<include key="log4j"/>
<include key="jibx-run"/>
<include key="xpp3" />
<include key="commons-logging"/>
<include key="jaxmejs"/>
</dependencies>
</resource>
Then inside you build.xml you can reference the BUILD path using the
following statement:
<x:path key=" xsd2jibx" id="the-path"/>
The 'the-path' can now referenced as a refid argument in any ant task.
Fpr example:
<taskdef name="xsd2jibx"
classname="org.jibx.xsd2jibx.GeneratorAntTask">
<classpath>
<path refid="the-path"/>
</classpath>
</taskdef>
Does this solve the problem?
Cheers, Steve.
