jvc and Jikes compiler

[John Santos-Ocampo <Jo...@ThriveMedia.com>]

Hi,

I've created an ant file which specifies the microsoft (jvc) compiler using
the following setting: 

<property name="build.compiler" value="jvc" /> 

However, when I run the ANT I get the following error message referring to
IBM's Jikes compiler.  This is the error message:

C:\antteh.xml:89: Error running Jikes compiler

Note: I have Micrsoft's compiler on my machine. I don't have the Jikes
compiler on my machine.

Any clues as to what is wrong here?

This is Ant 1.2, isn't it? It seems to be simply an error with the
error-message - Ant really tries to execute the MS compiler. Next problem
seems to be that Ant can't execute jvc.exe. Is jvc.exe on your path and
callable from the command-line?
