Struggling with Ant Task

Question

I have not success trying Kodo's ant task.
Can you give me an example of how to use it without relaying on the system
classpath, since I running ant inside jbuilder, I will like to know which
is the right format to get the task working.
<target name="enhancer" depends="compile,clean">
<copy todir="${classdir}" overwrite="yes">
<fileset dir="${srcdir}">
<include name="**/*.jdo"/>
</fileset>
</copy>
<taskdef name="jdoc"
classname="com.solarmetric.modules.integration.ant.JDOEnhancerTask"
classpath="${kodohome}/lib/kodo-jdoee.jar;${kodohome}/lib/jdo_0_95.jar;${kodohome}"/>
<jdoc srcDir="${classdir}">
<fileset dir=".">
<include name="**/*.jdo" />
</fileset>
</jdoc>
</target>
this is the exception that I get :
D:\JavaProjects\DatabaseLayer\build.xml:38: Could not create task of type:
jdoc due to java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError

which define custom tasks have to be in ant's classpath. That
"classpath" parameter to the taskdef does not define where ant looks
for the taskdef itself -- unfortunate but true! This is something the
ant people have talked about fixing.
In the meantime, you'll just need to put the necessary Kodo jars in your
$ANT_HOME/lib. Hopefully that will fix your problem.
