Hello everyone,

Sorry for taking this long to jump into the discussion. I used to use PDE
(Runtime-Workbench) to develop Ant normally. The only thing that differs
ant.core and the plug-ins that contribute Ant tasks is that they have to
build the JARs that contribute the tasks before starting the Runtime
Workbench. These JARs are not the plug-in libraries. They are any extra
JARs you are contributing through the following extension point (example
from ant.core):

- <extension point="org.eclipse.ant.core.extraClasspathEntries">
          <extraClasspathEntry library="lib/antsupportlib.jar" />
        </extension>

In order to make it easier I associated an external tools builder to
produce the JAR for ant.core when you do a full build. So, If you do a full
build on ant.core and start your runtime-workbench in debug mode and run an
Ant buildfile should be able to debug ant.core and any tasks you might
contribute.

Let me know if you have any problem,

Rodrigo
