#130 launch4j 3.2 ANT task fails in Eclipse Indigo

[ToFi]

launch4j 3.2 ANT task fails in Eclipse Indigo with JDK 1.6.0_43 on Windows 7 with the following error:

Buildfile: H:\1-Produktion\Holtzbrinck\GvH-Framework\Entwicklung\Updater\quellcode\build\build.xml

BUILD FAILED
H:\1-Produktion\Holtzbrinck\GvH-Framework\Entwicklung\Updater\quellcode\build\build.xml:11: The following error occurred while executing this line:
jar:file:/W:/01_skripte/Java/_Buildtools/launch4j/launch4j-3.2/lib/ant.jar!/org/apache/tools/ant/antlib.xml:37: Problem: failed to create task or type componentdef
Cause: The name is undefined.
Action: Check the spelling.
Action: Check that any custom tasks/types have been declared.
Action: Check that any <presetdef>/<macrodef> declarations have taken place.

Total time: 150 milliseconds

Where my buildfile on line 11 contains this:

    <property name="program.version.number" value="2.3.2.0" />

and my launch4j target contains this:

<target name="windowsEXE">
    <taskdef name="launch4j" classname="net.sf.launch4j.ant.Launch4jTask" />

    <launch4j
        configFile="build/conf/launch4j_parsxUpdater.xml"
        jar="dist/parsxUpdater.jar"
        outfile="dist/Framework-Aktualisierung.exe"
    />
</target>

Temporary solution: removing ant.jar from launch4j's lib/ dir. but that's kinda weird!

Hi,

Actually this makes sense - the ant versions were different, I removed the ant.jar from the classpath of launch4j.jar since you need ant to use the launch4j task.

Best regards,
Grzegorz
