Hi,
I'm not sure this is the correct newsgroup for my question, so if it
isn't please do advise me where I should post this!
I am developing a plugin that contributes a number of ant tasks to
Eclipse. The classes implementing these tasks are subclasses of some
other ant tasks that are provided by another plugin not under my control.
All is fine as long as I am editing a build.xml file: My ant tasks are
found and recognised and I can use AutoComplete for them as usual.
However, when I want to execute the build script, I get an error that it
cannot find the class my task is subclassing. It advises me to place the
appropriate jar file on the classpath. At the same time, however, my
build script also uses some tasks from that other plugin and they work
fine, so the jar file must already be on the classpath.
I have tried to include the other jar in the Class-Path entry of my jar
file's MANIFEST.MF, but failed to do so because I cannot figure out a
stable relative path between the two jar files. What is the official way
to do this?
Many thanks in advance,
Steffen
