This page: http://ant.apache.org/manual/using.html#projects says: The location attribute specifies a single file or directory relative to the project's base directory (or an absolute filename), I assume "absolute filename" means "abolute path". (What else could it mean?) But when I try an abolute path, it fails: With this error: dropping /Users/dkramer/javadoc/mifdoclet/ws/dkramer-1.4b1-1.5b1/make/"/Users/programs/jdk1.5.0/lib/tools.jar" from path as it doesn't exist where basedir is /Users/dkramer/javadoc/mifdoclet/ws/dkramer-1.4b1-1.5b1/make/ Must pathelement be relative? What does "or absolute filename" mean? -Doug --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscribe@ant.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-help@ant.apache.org
