destdir="." for compilation causes error

[Mark Dobbrow <md...@imaginemedia.com>]

Setting the destination directory for a java compile gets an out of memory
error - looks like a recursion problem?

Anyone know how do you set the destdir to be the current directory???

Thanks,
Mark


My build.xml:
<project name="content" default="compile" basedir=".">
   <property name="dist" value="."/>

   <target name="compile">
      <javac
        srcdir=".."
        destdir="${dist}"
        />
   </target>

</project>

Found part of the problem: "." is fine for dest directory, except I have a
like to another class dir in my current directory - ant seems to recurse
infinitely because of this link - haven't figured out why yet.
