You should ensure that before calling ant you add the jdk's tools.jar to
the classpath.
ant's compile operation relies on the presence of this jar that contains
the java compiler.
If you are using a build-skript, make sure it sets the classpath
accordingly.
btw: the "classic compiler" is the javac routine that was used until jdk1.2
the new javac optimizes code for the jew java vm "hotspot".
Hope that helps
