Debug javac task

[Barak Yaish <by...@cloverleafcomm.com>]

Hi,
 
I've a javac target which behave strange. It seems compiling successfully code modules, which contains imports statements to files not found in the classpath.
Here are some snippets:
 
<target name=debug" depends="compile_1, compile_2, compile_3"/>
 
<target name="compile_1">
            <javac srcdir="${dir1}" destdir="${output}"
                        <classpath>
            <pathelement location="${jars}/jar_x.jar"/>
</classpath>
</javac>
</target>
 
<target name="compile_2">
            <javac srcdir="${dir2}" destdir="${output}"
                        <classpath>
            <pathelement location="${jars}/jar_y.jar"/>
</classpath>
</javac>
</target>
 
<target name="compile_3">
            <javac srcdir="${dir3}" destdir="${output}"
                        <classpath>
            <pathelement location="${jars}/jar_x.jar"/>
            <pathelement location="${jars}/jar_1.jar"/> <!-- this is a jar contains classes of  "compile_1" target -->
</classpath>
</javac>
</target>
 
Today, I found that the code being compiled in "compile_3" contains java import statements to java files belong to the module compiled in "compile_2", BUT, the jar of classes of "compile_2" is NOT found in the classpath!...
 
What's wrong with the way I wrote the target? Can I echo the classpath the target used to verify which jars are found in the classpath?
 
Thanks a lot,
 
Barak.

Only a guess, but it looks like the class files for each of the compile
targets go in the same directory. Javac will use that directory to resolve
class files it needs as well as the classpath.
