<for > -Build Failed:problem 2004-08-02 - By Nanda Kishore MVS
Hi,
This is for the <for> task part of the problem. To clear a bit of confusion, I
'll list the settings required for the <for> or <for-each> task to run at the
risk of being repetitive:
1. ANT_HOME=<<Ant_Installation_Folder>>
2. JAVA_HOME=<<JDK_Folder>>
3. PATH=${ANT_HOME}\bin;${JAVA_HOME}\bin
4. CLASSPATH=${ANT_HOME}\lib
5. The ${ANT_HOME}\lib folder should contain the ant.jar and ant-contrib jar
files.
If you have all this and still the same "taskdef class cannot be found" problem
persists, you could try moving the ${ANT_HOME}\lib entry to the begining of the
classpath. And you could check if there are any older versions of Ant also in
the way somewhere on the system.
I'm sorry if you did all this already, but it's real surprise if the problem's
still there.
Best Regards,
Nanda Kishore

Hi,
I tried with the XML file as well.
BUILD FAILED
D:\deepak\buildProcess_2\_lib\build\apache-forrest-0.5.1-bin\forrest.build.x
ml:38:
taskdef class cannot be found
Total time: 1 second
D:\deepak\buildProcess_2\logging>ant -version
Apache Ant version 1.6.2 compiled on July 16 2004
The Ant version is also the latest, where could the
problem be???
Any way I left the for and decided to use <for-each>,
but I have 1 problem here. I have already posted the
problem anyway lets hop I am more clear this time
I am using <for-each> task to set the properties
and I want them to be global. i.e. I want the value
of the property in any ant target I call.
<project default="site" basedir="." name="forrest">
....
....
<taskdef
resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antcontrib.properties"/>
<target name="init-props">
<foreach list="logging,app,add" param="archive"
target="base"
inheritall="true" inheritrefs="true">
</foreach>
....
....
<antcall target="a" />
</target>
<target name="a" depends="init-props">
....
<antcall target="b" />
</target>
<target name="b" depends="init-props">
</target>
<target name="base">
<echo>****${archive}****</echo>
<property name="current.archive" value="${archive}" />
<echo>****${current.archive}****</echo>
</target>
The problem is I am not able to use the
${current.archive} or ${archive} in other
ant tasks. Inside the 'base' ant task, they work
fine, but in other ant task its not visible.
How can I make them global?
Any help reg this will be great.
bye,
with regards,
Deepak.
