when im compiling my project i want to have a number of differnet levels of code, each level only depending on all packages compiled before it. i dont want code in one package referencing code in a second package and code in the second package referencing code in the first. with makefiles you could enforce it by compiling all packages in a predefined order so any circular references would through a build error.
also i would like to add ant command line options, such as logging and debug options to the build file rather than have to type them all in each time im executing ant. i couldnt find anything in the manual. thanks, justin ----- Original Message ----- From: Ylan Segal <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Ant Users List <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, February 15, 2002 12:17 AM Subject: RE: packages compiled in order? > > > when ant compiles a project, is there any order to the way the > > packages are compiled, or does it add them all to javac at once? > > and if so can you get it to compile the packages in a specific > > order.
