Description Claude L.

2006-05-26 11:14:43 EDT

I have an existing projet located in the directory c:\myproject.
In this directory I have a ANT build.xml file and source code in
src/java and others directories.

I imported this projet from eclipse, from the existring ANT build.xml file.
After that a new directory have been created at c:\workspace\myproject.
Inside the directory c:\workspace\myproject, I only have the files
- .classpath
- .project
- build.xml

And nothing else in that directory.

When I launch the ANT build file from eclipse, it searches source file
in the directory c:\workspace\myproject\src\java although the real project directory is c:\myproject\src\java.

So the compilation fails !

Either the importation of the project should import all the files
and directories inside the c:\workspace\myproject directory.

Or the execution of the ANT scrip should work in the original directory
c:\myproject.

With resolution of 147337 you will be able to link to the buildfile in its original location.
