ASDocs Error in ANT

Question

Hi All,
I am desperately trying to get ASDocs to work with ANT. The following is the error I am currently getting:
Error: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Location.
public var location:Location;
I am referencing a class from another project (Location). How do I tell ASDocs to look up the definition in that secondary project? Here is my build.xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<project name="leadlaw" basedir="." default="compile">
     <target name="compile" depends="checkout,CCBuild,generateAsDoc" />
     <target name="checkout">

         </target>
     <target name="cleanAsDoc" description="Clean ASDoc directory of old contents.">

          <mkdir dir="${basedir}/html_docs" />

     </target>
     <target name="logAsDoc">

          <record name="${basedir}/html_docs/asdoc-log.txt" action="start" append="true" />
     </target>
     <target name="generateAsDoc" depends="cleanAsDoc,logAsDoc" description="Generate fresh ASDoc code documentation.">
          <exec executable="${basedir}/../../../FlexSDK4/bin/asdoc" failOnError="true">
               <arg line="-doc-sources ${basedir}/source/src" />
               <arg line="-source-path ${basedir}/source/src" />
               <arg line="-external-library-path ${basedir}/source/libs" />
               <arg line="-external-library-path ${basedir}/../modestmaps/source" />
               <arg line="-window-title 'LeadLaw API Documentation'" />
               <arg line="-main-title 'LeadLaw API Documentation'" />
               <arg line="-footer 'Copyright 2010 RRP Lead Law. All rights reserved.'" />
               <arg line="-output ${basedir}/html_docs" />
          </exec>
          <echo>API documentation created successfully.</echo>
     </target>
</project>
I imagine that adding some sort of external-library-path or similar should fix the issue. So far I haven't been able to get it to work (see the line with modestmaps). Any ideas?
Thanks!

I was able to solve this by using the following:
     <target name="generateAsDoc" depends="logAsDoc" description="Generate fresh ASDoc code documentation.">
          <echo>Creating code documentation...</echo>
          <exec executable="${basedir}/../../../FlexSDK4/bin/asdoc" failOnError="true">
               <arg line="-doc-sources ${basedir}/source/src/com" />
               <arg line="-source-path ${basedir}/../modestmaps/source/src" />
               <arg line="-source-path ${basedir}/../components/source/src" />
               <arg line="-source-path ${basedir}/source/src" />
               <arg line="-external-library-path ${basedir}/source/libs" />
               <arg line="-window-title 'LeadLaw API Documentation'" />
               <arg line="-main-title 'LeadLaw API Documentation'" />
               <arg line="-footer 'Copyright 2010 RRP Lead Law. All rights reserved.'" />
               <arg line="-output ${basedir}/html_docs" />
          </exec>
     </target>
The difference is that I used additional "-source-path" declarations instead of "-external-library-path" for the dependent library code.
