Hi, finally i got it, simply putting the line
set ANT_ARGS=-lib c:\ant_extralibs into ant_installdir/bin/ant.bat Gilbert -----Original Message----- From: Rebhan, Gilbert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 09, 2005 12:14 PM To: Ant Users List Subject: RE: putting cmd args in ant.bat Hi, Jan sorry didn't get it yet i have no antrc_pre.bat / antrc_post.bat in my .../bin folder the background of my question = i'm kicking off an antscript out off Cruise Control. Normally i start my scripts with a batchfile like that = /* @ echo off set ANT_OPTS=-Xmx1024m set ANT_HOME=C:\ant_1_6_5 set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Programme\JavaSoft\JDK\j2sdk1.4.2_05\bin;%ANT_HOME%\bin;C :\cvsnt;C:\was_libs set JAVA_HOME=C:\Programme\JavaSoft\JDK\j2sdk1.4.2_05 : DEBUG :call ant -debug -listener org.apache.tools.ant.XmlLogger -lib c:\ant_extralibs -f %1 : XML LOGGER :call ant -listener org.apache.tools.ant.XmlLogger -lib c:\ant_extralibs -f %1 : DEFAULT call ant -lib c:\ant_extralibs -f %1 pause */ but when using ant under the hood of CruiseControl i call the ant_install_dir/bin/ant.bat with the filename of the antscript as argument. Now i want my extralibs to be available under CruiseControl also, but i can't change the %PATH% at that machine. If i understand your posting correctly i may not put the - lib ... to ANT_CMD_LINE_ARGS but what's the most easiest way to achieve what i want ?? Thanks for your patience !!

So you could do some extra work there. The environment variable ANT_OPTS is given as argument: "%_JAVACMD%" %ANT_OPTS% -classpath "%ANT_HOME%\lib\ant-launcher.jar" "-Dant.home=%ANT_HOME%" org.apache.tools.ant.launch.Launcher %ANT_ARGS% %ANT_CMD_LINE_ARGS% Oh - no "-lib" option possible. Only VM-Parameters. But you can set the environment variable ANT_ARGS.
