I have a project using forms, it compiles and runs just fine, but when compiled with the generated ant it doesn't run
my ant file has the java2 task and i added the needed jars to my lib folder
<property name="javac2.home" value="lib/idea"/>
<path id="javac2.classpath">
<pathelement location="${javac2.home}/javac2.jar"/>
<pathelement location="${javac2.home}/jdom.jar"/>
<pathelement location="${javac2.home}/asm.jar"/>
<pathelement location="${javac2.home}/asm-commons.jar"/>
<pathelement location="${javac2.home}/jgoodies-forms.jar"/>
</path>
<taskdef name="javac2" classname="com.intellij.ant.Javac2" classpathref="javac2.classpath"/>
<taskdef name="instrumentIdeaExtensions" classname="com.intellij.ant.InstrumentIdeaExtensions" classpathref="javac2.classpath"/>
but when I run my program I get the following error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/intellij/uiDesigner/core/Spacer
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.intellij.uiDesigner.core.Spacer

I have noticed that the version compiled from the Idea has some classes in the output folder (what is missing) while the ant generated version doesn't have those classes.
EDIT: i implemented the solution from below, this means I modified my ant build to extract the content of forms_rt.jar to my output folder
<unjar src="${javac2.home}/forms_rt.jar" dest="${webserver.output.dir}">
<patternset>
<include name="**/*.class"/>
</patternset>
</unjar>
