Re: [jetty-dev] Error while trying to run jetty from ant

[Jan Bartel <janb@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Saad,

The wiki page you linked to earlier has all the information on the
various ways of configuring the jetty-8 ant tasks. In particular, look
at the bottom of the page in the section
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Jetty/Howto/Use_Jetty_with_Ant#Plugin_syntax

regards
Jan
