Agreed - And yes that is something that i would want to do once the
application is fully developed.
right now the application is broken up into units - eg. project\db
\security
\util
etc...
But the thing is that - The project is not fully developed and there are
many dependencies between java files - We are in a rapid development mode at
the current time - And my developers would like to do builds at any given
point - So if they add a new java file the can compile all the working units
at any point in time. I understand that there is the includes option
available - But is there any way that i can create a text file - comma
delimitted, or spaces or new lines for each piece of code - This file could
be maintained by each individual developer and read in by the ant script -
That way there is not alot of work invovled when compiling
Basically
ant -buildfile build.xml filelist.txt
"$1" would be the a file in the filelist getting parsed into the build.xml
-- contents -- build.xml
<target name="compile">
<!-- Compile the java code from ${src} into ${build} -->
<javac srcdir="$1" destdir="${buildCore}"/>
</target>
Thanks,
VA

Huh? Ant can compile the entire tree. Multiple trees, in fact, in one shot.
Is that not what you want?
