Hello,
As you properly know the junit task there are some classloading problems. See http://ant.apache.org/faq.html#delegating-classloader
I have made a patch that solves these classloader problems. See http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6606#c22
I would like to submit the patch. But I am not sure how I do it. I have read this http://ant.apache.org/ant_task_guidelines.html But I still have a few questions.
*) Should I make the patch for 1.6.x or 1.7? *) If you are not forking the junit task you still have to put junit.jar in the system classpath. Is it OK to change the junit task so it forks a new process for junit if junit.jar isn't present in the system classpath? Even if people have fork="false" in the build file? Or is it more appropriate to fail with an error message that says you have to fork or add junit.jar to the system classpath. *) Where is the proper place to post these questions? I have looked at the dev@(protected) archive and it does not seem to be the right place.
