I tried w/ ant 1.7.0 w/ and w/o my previous suggestion (removing the path to ant.bat).  In both cases it compiled successfully.

Here are 3 things you can try:

* Try unsetting your CLASSPATH environment variable, you shouldn't need it set.  Also I just noticed that your last email shows your CLASSPATH variable with a '|' character in it.  Is that true?  I don't know if this is a legal character.  This is what you said it was:

    CLASSPATH C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_06\lib\ext\QTJava.zip;C:\Sun|AppServer\lib;.

I think you can do this by typing:

    set CLASSPATH=

Or maybe "unset CLASSPATH" (it's been a while since I've developed on windows).

* Try running this from the command line:

    C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_06\bin\apt.exe

Did it work?  It doesn't like it from ant in your environment.

* Try moving the jsftemplating project to a location w/o spaces in the path.  I know that this has been an area that various java utilities in the past have had a problem.

I noticed that your "demo" build says "Successful" at the end (actually they both do).  I intentionally broke my build and I get a "FAILED" message at the end.  I'm confused why your ant would report that when it obviously had failures.

I'm very open to any suggestions you have on improving the build process.  You are experiencing an abnormally difficult time getting your environment working, however, the build.xml files that we have are fairly simple (except that "apt" is required until JDK 1.6 when javac wraps this functionality in).  Any ideas you have to make it easier are very welcome!

Thanks,

Ken

I did all this from the command line. This doesn't contain the IOexecute error, but still has a problem and gives no clues how to resolve it. Really, I think a build process so complicated that it can't be easily debugged is a major problem.

OK, here's the cvs command followed by the building of jsftemplating. Just below it is the attempt to build the demo application.
