As Diane pointed out, <path> is normally a collection of ordered
directories, not of individual files. <classpath> conceptually is also a
<path> which can contain JAR and ZIP files. In your example, your <path
id="framework.src"> should be a <fileset>, since it appears to be the files
you want to compile. By the way, your second <include> for
AbstractAppServer.java looks suspicious. If the class name if
client.AbstractAppServer instead of eshop.src.client.AbstractAppServer, then
your include is probably wrong...
Assuming you have sources in:
${base.dir} for your "framework" package
(should be "com.versant.framework"?!)
${base.dir}/eshop/src for the "client" package of the eshop module
Your <javac> task should look something like this:
<javac destdir="${out.classes.dir}"
failonerror="true"
debug="${debug}"
deprecation="${deprecation}"
optimize="${optimize}">
<classpath path="${project.class.path}"/>
<src path="${base.dir}" />
<src path="${base.dir}/eshop/src" />
<include name="framework/**" />
<include name="client/**" />
</javac>
What people normally do is compile all the sources under a single "src" or
"sources" directory. Also, the <classpath> inside the <javac> task usually
refers to another one defined elsewhere with an id, and it's refid'd.
Anyways, I hope this helps. --DD

Hi,
my build.xml has something like this:
<project ......>
........
.........
<path id="framework.src">
<fileset dir="${base.dir}">
<include name="framework/*.java"/>
<include name="eshop/src/client/AbstractAppServer.java"/>
</fileset>
</path>
<target name="framework"
description="Creates framework.jar in install directory">
<javac destdir="${out.classes.dir}" failonerror="true"
debug="${debug}" deprecation="${deprecation}"
optimize="${optimize}">
<src refid="framework.src"/>
<classpath path="${project.class.path}"/>
</javac>
............
</target>
..........
..........
</project>
Now, I get the following error
n:\gsp_v\test\syseng\java\bin\build.xml:251:
N:\gsp_v\test\syseng\java\framework\AbstractTestClient.java is not a
directory.
Isn't path id supposed to be used to have a template of a set of files?
Or is it for a template of directories? If it is for directories, why was it
done
like that?
Is this a bug? I am using: Ant version 1.4.1 compiled on October 11 2001.
Thanks in advance,
Gurdev
