> I have downloaded and installed the jakarta-ant-1.4.1 and set my > environment variables for ANT_HOME and JAVA_HOME and added the ant bin > directory to the path. I am on win 2k. When I enter "build" on a command > line (build is a .bat file that contains "ant compile"), I get another > command line with "ant compile" then I get the help for java command > (Usage: java[-options] class [args...]...) and the program ends. The > classes directory is not created and it is not deleted if I create it > manually. If I run the java command from the command line, the single java > file I have in the directory compiles correctly. If I take the @echo off > out of the ant.bat file in the bin directory, the .bat file seems to run > correctly until it gets to "org.apache.tools.ant.Main compile" and then I > get the java help text. The build.xml file I have is a cut and paste of > one that is supposed to work correctly.

Thanks in advance for any > help that you can provide. > there is probably an error in one of the env variables which is breaking the java call; it has nothing to do with the build file. turning off the echo is a good step; look at the java call to see if you can spot the problem -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
