Never used it, but I think you just have to use the same name for the loaderref attribute for both your custom tasks to be loaded by the same class loader, which is essential for them to recognize each other. --DD -----Original Message----- From: Nick Southwell [mailto:nicks@yomobile.net] Sent: Wednesday, July 03, 2002 2:49 PM To: Ant Users List Subject: loaderref attribute in taskdef I'm having trouble figuring out how to use the loaderref attribute in taskdef. What should the value of this attribute refer to? I'm trying to nest a custom task inside a custom task container, and I'm not able to load the contained task. I suspect that loaderref provides a solution to this problem, but I can't figure it out.
