Leila, This reply might be not the solution you seek. Perhaps, you might want to check out maven2 for your purposes. Especially for a simple setup you will be up and running quite fast:
You would need to: 1. Download and install it from http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/maven/binaries/maven-2.0.1-bin.zip 2. create a project with command mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-app 3. Copy your sources to src/main/java 4. Copy your (JUnit) test case sources under src/test/java 5. A couple of goals would be: mvn clean compile mvn clean test-compile mvn test mvn package (you get the idea:) 5. The result will be put into target/classes There is a getting started doc available at http://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/index.html with a couple of excellent mini guides to also more advanced topics reachable via http://maven.apache.org/guides/index.html I hope this helps in anyway and wish happy new year too Tanju On 12/31/05, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello, > > I'm trying to compile a simple program using: mave java:compile command. > build:start: > > java:prepare-filesystem: > > java:compile: > [echo] Compiling to C:\repotest/target/classes > [echo] No java source files to compile. > BUILD SUCCESSFUL > .... > > When I looked for the above command, I found that: "The source code directory > is specified in the build element of your project.xml file". > > So my question is the following: > Should every project have his own project.xml file? > > Thank you for your reply. > Leïla > > P.S: Happy new Year to everyone :-) > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
