Anyone used jvc successfully?

[Jason Day <ja...@grooveport.com>]

Hello,

Has anyone been able to use jvc as their compiler within ant?  I can get it
to work using the exec task, of course, but when I try setting the
build.compiler property to jvc and compile with the javac task I get reams
of error messages like:
  c:\ant\lib\ant.jar(55,21) : error J0029: Invalid character

Can anybody help me out?  Or, alternatively, is there a way I can extract
the com.ms classes so that I don't have to use jvc?

Thanks in advance,
Jason

jvc version output is 6.00.8424

I need the com.ms.security classes, so I can assert permissions to execute
privileged code in IE.  I'm not very familliar with the MS java sdk; I'll
look at clspack and see it it can work for me.

Thanks,
Jason

I use it quite intensively (and I have included support for jvc itno
javac) - I have never seen a Message like this...

Can you post the part of your build.xml which executes the compiler and the
output of invoking jvc (or just the version number it indicates)?

What part of the com.ms-Classes are you using? Generally you could extract
them from the PackageManager using "clspack -auto" which will create a file
%windir%\java\classes\classes.zip but you may get problems when you try to
use non-MS-Compilers to compile MS-specific Source.
