Eclipse M8 Ant problem/question [message #159138] Mon, 17 May 2004 14:26

I am having a problem with getting ant to be pointed at the correct base
directory when it executes a build.xml.

I am running on Windows XP.
The project is called Informa.
Eclipse lives in c:\eclipse.
The project workspace is c:\JavaWork\informa

And now:

1. In Eclipse, External Tools, for the Ant Build, on the Main tab, I specify
the Base directory as ${workspace_loc/informa}
2. By the way I launch Eclipse with the -data switch on the command line

4. And with those settings, it seems that the build.xml thinks that Base
Directory is c:\eclipse

I also noticed something weird, which is in the header area of the Ant
Properties dialog box, when I fill it out as I describe, there is a red X
(Eclipse error) error followed by this cryptic message text displayed right
on the dialog box.

[Targets]: file:c:/JavaWork/informa/build.xml:9: Basedir
C:\eclips\${workspace_loc:\informa} does not exist

It doesn't prevent me from running it but if you look at message there is
something fishy about it.

Any clues that you see?

Thanks.
