Hi Mark - Thanks for your added insight. I too had the suspicion that since ant was barfing all the time that my classpath was too long, and it is indeed very long (996 characters). I'm guessing it probably doesn't need to be that long, but classpath settings aren't exactly my area of expertise ;) I actually store all my JARs in c:\cp\ in an effort to shorten the classpath, but as you can see, it's still quite long. Oh well... it looks like Ant 1.6.0 can handle this crazy classpath, but I'll keep this issue in mind for the future if I get more things barfing at me.
Thanks for all your help everyone, Matt ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Norman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, January 22, 2004 8:00 AM Subject: RE: [Xdoclet-user] Trouble using hibernate task Matt, Your problem was the classpath line was too long. If you look in ant.bat, you'll see it calls lcp.bat to concatenate all the classpath locations into one shell variable. There's a maximum length for a command line so lcp.bat barfed. If you ever want to go back to Ant 1.5.x, try using shorter directory paths for your library locations, or (assuming you're using Windows) use the SUBST command to provide a drive letter alias for your library directory. Probably when you switched to different Java and Ant versions, your directory paths shortened and the script was able to handle them without exceeding the line length limit.

After poking around some more trying to make sure that XDoclet was gettin= g the right java file I realized that Ant was messed up. Even if I just ty= ped "ant" in a random directory without a build file I got the same error message: The input line is too long. :gotAllArgs was unexpected at this time. I'm not sure what exactly was causing this, but I was able to resolve the problem by upgrading to JDK 1.4 and Ant 1.6.0 (I was using JRE 1.3 and An= t 1.5.2). I now have XDoclet working correctly with the example Java class I sent earlier.
