http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5548 Jikes task does not handle missing directories in extdirs, javac does. Both should Summary: Jikes task does not handle missing directories in extdirs, javac does. Both should Product: Ant Version: 1.4.1 Platform: Macintosh OS/Version: MacOS X Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you have a directory in your extdirs which does not exist, the javac task trims it out, I believe by using the "Path" construct. If you set build.complier=jikes, then it does not. Jikes then complains about missing directories, and the compile fails. I believe that this behavioral difference is significant, as it means that even though MacOS X comes with jikes out of the box, one cannot use it in compiles. Note that Project Builder, from Apple, had similar problems until they patched it to do much the same, so it is perhaps not surprising. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
