Build: 20070629-6.0.0-M1 comes with Ant 1.7, my existing ANT script now bombs when running its junit task – this worked “out of the box” with earlier versions of MyEclipse – because that came with 1.6.x ANT.

My now failing task is:

    <target name="run-unit-tests" depends="build-unit-tests, emma-jars" unless="dont-run-unit-tests">
        <mkdir dir="${build-reports.dir}/reports/xml"/>
        <junit haltonfailure="false" fork="yes" forkmode="once" printsummary="withOutAndErr" failureproperty="junit-has-errors" dir="${basedir}" includeantruntime="true">
            <classpath refid="project.class.path"/>
            <classpath refid="emma.classpath"/>
            <classpath>
                <pathelement path="${emma.test.dir}/somejar.jar" />
                ...
            </classpath>

            <jvmarg value="-Demma.coverage.out.file=${emma.test.dir}/emma-results.ec" />

            <batchtest fork="yes" todir="${build-reports.dir}/reports/xml">
                <formatter type="xml"/>
                <fileset dir="${build.dir}/test">
                    <include name="**/*Test.class"/>
                </fileset>
            </batchtest>
        </junit>
    </target>

My failing results are (I get variations of this with other projects I am testing):

run-unit-tests:
    [junit] Running com.mypackage.MyTest
    [junit] Tests run: 4, Failures: 0, Errors: 4, Time elapsed: 0.453 sec

    [junit] Tests FAILED (crashed)

I can resolve this by changing my ANT home to 1.6.5 from MyEclipse 5.5 and it works again, but I’d rather not have to do that!

BTW, I am aware of http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41511 and have checked my classpath. More accurately I’ve run against Ant 1.6.5 and checked the classpath reported within my JUnitReport. I cannot see any obvious additional runtime ANT dependencies here.
