Antoine Toulme commented on BUILDR-472:
---------------------------------------

My concern was to make the ecj compiler pass the specs properly. BUILDR-317 had 
that problem, and it hanged out for some time.

I found out overriding applies_to to return false would deactivate the compiler 
for guess_compiler. I will work along that line to make the loading of ecj 
optional, except for specs for which it will be loaded in sandbox, but disabled 
for guess_compiler, and reenabled for the its specs.



> ECJ dependency now required to build any java project

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Compilers
>    Affects Versions: 1.4.2

>
> A recent change has made compiling java require the following dependencies. 
> (Even if I have not specified the ecj compiler). 
> * org.eclipse.jdt.core.compiler:ecj:pom:3.5.1
> * org.eclipse.jdt.core.compiler:ecj:jar:3.5.1
> This seems like an error and it is annoying to add extra repositories to list 
> just to download uneeded dependencies
