There is an extension point
(org.eclipse.ant.core.extraClasspathEntries) to add extra JARs to the Ant
runtime classpath, but these JARs are added to the classpath after the Ant Home
JARs.
I would encourage you to attach your fix to the Ant
bug for inclusion in the next version of Ant.

Subject: [platform-ant-dev] Fixing Ant
bug in a plugin?
There's a nasty bug in Ant 1.7 that prevents the <ftp>
<modified> tag from working properly.
See: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45010
The
fix to this is very simple (changing one line in an Ant class).
I'd
like to package a patched Ant class into a jar and include that jar into a
plugin that my users can use with Eclipse to simplify fixing this
problem.
- Can I do this with an extension point that adds the jar to
the beginning of the Ant classpath?
- Can I make the extension conditional
on having the Ant 1.7 plugin?
I'm a newbie to writing plugins, can
anyone help me with the plugin.xml to do this?
Thanks,
Kirk Wolf
