While we could add a flag like this for jikes, there seems to be now way - I'd like to be proven wrong - to tell javac to omit them. The only option I'd see was to exec the command line version of javac using the JDK you want to compile against. We could add another magic property for jikes - build.compiler.runtime or something like that (I didn't say that 8^). Adding an attribute to <javac> that isn't supported by modern/classic compile doesn't feel right. Stefan
