@plastik - Have you checked out my Ant resources on my wiki: http://www.thecrumb.com/wiki/Ant

Does your Ant script require any external tasks?

I have a working Eclipse project that builds correctly. I also have
an ant script that works from the command-line.
I want to add the ant script as one step in my build process.
However, I am attempting to do this with an Eclipse “builder” and the
script will not run correctly.

Can anyone point me to information on how to include an ANT script as
part of my build process in Eclipse.

Just saw your post on the Ant list

I figured it was an Eclipse issue as the command line in 1.7 works fine with the same build file…

Here is what I found out:

It’s an Eclipse bug, not an Ant issue.

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=195986

Fixed in the 3.4 stream.
Planning to fix in the 3.3.1 stream.

Thanks

No - I haven’t done any more with this - haven’t had the time, and I’m using an alternate task for input so I have been able to get by without…

Did you find the problem with ant 1.7, about the input task?

It looks like related to the use of the defaultValue in the input task.
