execute java class with ant

I want my ant script to execute the command

java -cp libs/a.jar:libs/b.jar org.stack.class1 --package pName --out classes new.wsdl

How can I do it with an Ant script? The following does not work

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project name="class" default="compile">
<target name="compile">
    <java classname="org.stack.class1" fork="true">
    <classpath>
        <pathelement location="libs/a.jar"/>
        <pathelement location="libs/b.jar"/>

    </classpath>
    <arg value="--package pName --out classes new.wsdl"/>

    </java>
</target>

It complains that --package pName --out classes new.wsdl is an argument for java. However I want --package pName --out classes new.wsdl to be arguments to org.stack.class1

The value parameter of the arg tag can only take one parameter. See the documentation of the arg tag.

Try adding several arg tags, one for each parameter.

I think the issue is with your arg value. According to the documentation here, you are not specifying two separate command line arguments with 

<arg value="--package pName --out classes new.wsdl"/>

I would try changing it to

<arg line="--package pName --out classes new.wsdl"/>

For the java task, the <arg> elements take a single token each. Try something like this

<arg value="--package"/>
<arg value="pName"/>
<arg value="--out"/>
... etc
