javac

[Bill Rosenberg <bi...@eRosenberg.com>]

When the javac task runs, I want to have the class files sent to a
seperate tree that mirrors the source code tree using:

<target name="server" depends="utilitiesC">
     <javac srcdir="${top}/src/edgemed/server" destdir="${top}/classes"
classpath="${classpath}"
       />
</target>

Each time it runs however, it compiles every class in the srcdir instead
of the ones that have changed or the ones that do not have a .class in
the destdir. It does not seem to know its class files are somewhere
else. Any ideas?

Sincerely,

Bill

Is your top package named "edgemed", and you're trying to compile just
the "server" subpackage? If so, you probably want to set srcdir to
"${top}/src" and use "includes=**/server/" instead of what you're doing.
I think the problem is the classes are getting built into the wrong
package, so the checks fail.

Bill,

I have committed a patch to CVS whereby javac will, in verbose mode, tell
you why it is compiling a particular file. It will help you understand where
it is looking for class files, that is where it expects the class files to
be.
