Hello,

An Eclipse project I inherited from a former colleague has a component included for code coverage called "emma". This is creating a problem when I use the build.xml file in the Ant view. I am given the following message at the end and wondered if someone could tell me how to resolve this please.

#####################################

BUILD FAILED
C:\eclipsehelios\workspace\MyProjectName\build.xml:204: Problem: failed to create task or type emmajava
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.

#####################################

When I click on the "build.xml:204" part it opens that part of the file but I cannot tell if anything is wrong.

Thanks in advance

Regards

AJF
