deployment of process definition using ant task

[jgerlach]

Here's a build.xml I use. Its a it of a hack, but it works. I was having classpath issues so there are probably duplicate jars - but it works so I left it alone.

My setup is jboss-4.0.3RC1 with JBPM 3.0 deployed to a jbpm directory. The JBPM data is using HSQL although it will work with other DB's. I'm using the versioning approach so my custom controllers and ActionHandlers are in src/java and the processdefinition.xml and gpd.xml are in src/process. The classpath seems to need as least: Ant, Hypersonic, JBPM, and whatever you process may be calling.

In my case, this process is calling some external EJB3 stuff, so I needed to add those to the classpath.
