Can I suggest you download the JIKES compiler from IBM. It's free, it
runs an order of magnitude faster than JAVAC and so far as I can see
the -depend works. You may want to use the +E compiler switch to get
errors in the same/similar format to JAVAC.
The address is http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/formula/Jikes/ (it's
available as a link from the blackdown site).

yes jikes is an impressing alternative for development of large java projects
but beware of jikes bytecode running on symantec jit compilers.
the bytecode is according to IBM obeying the specifications of sun but doesn't
run on windows symantec JIT VMs. we got multiple exceptions and system
crashes with our applications. this 'works' on sun jdk 1.1.6 for windows and
netscape 4.05 (builtin VM). the only workaround is to disable the jit by
renaming the symjit.dll and compilation with javac (see towerJ for getting
performance with sun javac).
