External Ant and required jars [message #69052]

I have the following problem. From the command line I can execute my Ant
build file. It requires an obfuscator, retroguard.jar, which is found when
I build from the command line. When I build from Eclipse the RetroGuard
class is not found. I configured Eclipse to not use global classpath as
specifed in the Ant runtime prefs, and set ANT_HOME to point to my modified
apache-ant-1.5.3 install (removed xercesImpl.jar). The retroguard.jar shows
up in the Ant runtime classpath, but does not seem to be applied. Any
ideas?

thanks in advance...

It appears that you are setting things up correctly.
Have you tried running in verbose (or debug) mode for Ant and comparing the
difference between command line build and the build within Eclipse?

Why do you have to remove xercesImpl? I am getting error messages related
to that when I set ANT_HOME instead of using the Ant that is with Eclipse.

Because Eclipse "forces" the user to use the Xerces provide in the Xerces
plugin.
See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=36643

Good to know. Removing that file fixed my problem.
