Has always been that way. This is the only way to run javac in Ant's VM which is a major speed improvement - well, if your compilation itself is fast, that is. > I kind of hoped ant would eventually just invoke the scripts/native > code/etc. directly without going through the JVM first. We can do that, but prefer to do things in VM. Sometimes we even get more control that way, we can pass streams that write directly to Ant's logging system instead of capturing stderr, for example. > But Steves blog means that it is pretty unlikely to happen, as that > would certainly force a lot of people to double-check their > builds. :( Like I said, even Ant 1.1 invoked javac that way.
