Description

The Ant javadoc target in compiler/build.xml generates a number of errors, e.g.:

[javadoc] Constructing Javadoc information...
[javadoc] /home/raju/src/svn/falcon-svn/compiler/src/org/apache/flex/compiler/ant/COMPCTask.java:26: package org.apache.tools.ant does not exist
[javadoc] import org.apache.tools.ant.BuildException;

(continues)

Apache Ant ant.jar is missing in the classpath, when I add ant.jar to the classpath for the javadoc target, no error message is shown.
