I am new to ant.
How to write a task to see if a .jar file is in a given location, if its there, then whether or not a given .class file is in it?
What ant tutorial do you recommand.
Thank you
Garandi

Ant has an <avaliable /> task which checks if a resource is there. You can use this to test if your jar exists. Also it can be used to check whether a particular class is in the classpath. So though you can't check the contents of a jar directly, you can handle ClassDefNotFound exceptions a little more helpfully.
