WOW, guys thanks for the fast response, I really appretiate this help.
I am standing in the main directory (MyProject).
When I use -verbose I get alot of output, something like:

[javac] MyOp1.java added as MyOp1.class doesn't exist.
[javac] Op1Helper.java added as Op1Helper.class doesn't exist.
...... then I get:

[javac] Compilation arguments:
[javac] '-d'
[javac] '/path/to/MyProject/resulting_classes_directory'
[javac] '-classpath'
[javac]
'/path/to/MyProject/resulting_classes_directory:/path/to/MyProject/Operation1:
/path/to/MyProject:/opt/j2sdk/lib:/path/to/MyProject/Operation1/MyOp1.java: ......'

There nothing states that the compiler is seeing the classes in the package MathOp, just like I expected. I will do a search for how to use sourcepath attribute, and try it. I 'll let you know if it worked, in the mean while, if you have any
suggestion, please let me know.
Thank you for every body.

When you execute your ant script, what directory are you "standing" in? I see you give a "relative" srcdir of Operation1. Are you standing in the directory that Operation1 lives? You may also need to use sourcepath attribute.

Hi Every Body:
I am facing a probelm compile a java application. My Java application uses external and internal library. In other words, let's say i have a package called java.matrix, and I wrote a package for this project called MathOp,

the layout of my project directory is :
   MyProject
               MathOp
                      Addition.java
                      Multiplication.java
                      Subtraction.java
                      Division.java
               Operation1
                      some classes
               Operation2
                      more classes
               build.xml
resulting_classes_directory MANIFEST.1

Now I need to be able to include all or the needed classes from MathOp into the compilation of Operation1, and put the results in resulting_classes_directory. I can do this from the command promt using option of javac and it works fine for exmaple I can do : javac -classpath /opt/j2sdk/lib/:/path/to/my/project:Operation1 -d resulting_classes_directory/ Operation1/*.java When I try to do this with ant, it fails complaining about not finding the classes in the package MathOp. I dont want to compile the whole package of MathOp. Please don't suggest this. I want it to be compiled when the classes that needs it is compiled. Here's what I have in my build.xml file.

<target name="op1" description="Compiles the Operation 1 and package it"> <javac srcdir="Operation1" destdir="resulting_classes_directory" includes="**/*.java" >
           <classpath>
               <pathelement path="Operation1"/>
               <pathelement path="."/>
               <pathelement path="/path/to/my/project"/>
<pathelement path="/opt/j2sdk/lib/" /> <fileset dir="Operation1">
                     <include name="**/*.java"/>
               </fileset>
           </classpath>
       </javac>
<jar destfile="Op1.jar" basedir="resulting_classes_directory" manifest="MANIFEST.1" />
   </target>

none of the classes are compiled, "And It Is Important That They Are Compiled Only When Ant Is Invoked." Please let me know what I am missing here, or at least what to search for in google.
Thank you in advance.
