More info:
I tried to use antlib.xml by copying it and the jar to my project, but
adding the suggested block below:
<taskdef resource=".../antlib.xml">
<classpath>
<pathelement location=".../ant-contrib.jar"/>
</classpath>
</taskdef>
... results in:
Buildfile: build.xml
[taskdef] Could not load definitions from resource .../antlib.xml. It
could not be found.
This happens both with absolute and relative paths to antlib.
OTOH, I could make it work by copying the parts of its contents I'm
interested in, eg:
<taskdef
name="for"
classname="net.sf.antcontrib.logic.ForTask"
onerror="ignore">
<classpath>
<pathelement location=".../ant-contrib.jar"/>
</classpath>
</taskdef>
I can't really see what I'm doing wrong, maybe I just need some sleep, but
that could just be an inaccurate doc, or a plain ant bug.
