Not sure which magic property you are talking about - in jasper 
there is one and it has 2 implementations ( the second is a jikes plugin).

Attribute, but better nothing - use <javac> task, don't rely on 
jasper.

+1. See previous.

have code to automatically detect if jikes is present and use it
if it is ( fall back if not, see JspInterceptor ).
