Everything is possible -- probable is what you have to watch out for. :) The built-in java-compiling task, <javac>, handles Sun's javac and the indie-compiler jikes -- so you'd need to write some in-house stuff to deal with your in-house compiler (either modify Javac.java, or do some of that tricky "extends" stuff that I'm not all that up on just yet :) Hope this helps, Diane ===== ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
