Are the *.java files related (are they defining classes that are used in a common
application or applet)? If so, I think javac will automatically compile the
dependencies,
so you just need to give it the top level java file anyway.
If the '*.java' files are not related, you will need to do a little shell scripting,
to collect the files referenced by '*.java' into a list of Windows format names which
you then pass to javac. I'd suggest starting with a 'for' loop to iterate over the
list of file names, using cygpath on each to generate the Window's path and
concatenating the names into a list. But you'll have to play with quotes, to preserve
the backslashes.
If you aren't comfortable doing this, I can provide some help, but I won't be free to
do so till next week.
