> java build improvements - delegation to modules
> -----------------------------------------------

>          Key: HARMONY-439
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-439
>      Project: Harmony
>         Type: Improvement

>   Components: Classlib
>     Reporter: Mark Hindess
>     Assignee: Tim Ellison
>     Priority: Minor

> There are a couple of issues that could be tidied up:
> 1) Currently we build java code into both 'build' and 'modules/*/bin/main' - we might avoid problems if we always built code to 'build'.  This also means we build everything twice ... once into 'build' then again into 'modules/*/bin/main' when the tests are run.
> 2) We build jars in two places 'make/build-java.xml' and 'modules/*/make/common/build.xml' - HARMONY-431 is proof that this is a bad idea.
> 3) To make matters worse 'make/build-java.xml' builds the jars to a location under 'build' where as the module build creates straight into 'deploy'.
> I suggest fixing these issues by delegating the building of the jars to the module ant files and to always build the code to the top-level 'build' directory.
> I will submit a patch shortly.
