RE: [platform-ant-dev] Cannot define custom ant task using xlalan/xerce

["Sascha Freitag" <freitag@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Gabriel,

I have only a general comment. Would it not be better, even in your environment, to build up the classpath within the ant script ? I prefer this because I do not have to configure any IDE to run my scripts, and I do also not have to write a start script to run the build from command line.

Regards Sascha
