I am trying to use Ant 1.2 with JUnit 3.5 (on linux) with the

Use fork="yes" for the Java task.

I disagree that one file is not sufficient for a large project with many

original make had trouble even traversing multiple directories), much of the

Just make the 'includes' attribute in the javac task in the following
form:

Then you can compile portions of the build tree like this:

We have the VSS directory on the machine where our VSS repository is located

You can run Ant in verbose mode (-verbose) to see exactly what command line
you are using.

Thanks for all your help on the subject.
I've built a small Java script to do the TCP/IP communication and it works
great.
It allows the user to login and access the pserver remotely.
Maybe now I can work on the CVS task in Ant to do the same.

I think you have a fair understanding of Ant. Personally, I love it. I used

Run ant with -debug and you should see why javac is compiling everything

It has to do with this attribute

This should point to the root of your package hierarchy.

I don't either, I am just tring to explain Ant's advantages.
1. very easy to write and understand the build.xml file,

I think another big advantage to Ant that I haven't seen listed is the
separation of "what" needs to be done from "how" you are going to do
it. I don't think Ant in its current incarnation is prefect in this
regard, but it is closer to describing the "what" than Makefiles are
