No, that is not at all what I am suggesting. This is what I am suggesting:
javac -cp... CompileMaster.java
where CompileMaster.java is generated by the Emacs lisp function
de-build-compile-masters and has the form:
// Generated by the JDE on 3/19/01.
package root;
public class CompileMaster {
ClassA f1; // reference to root.ClassA
ClassB f2; // reference to root.ClassB
...
root.pkg1.CompileMaster; // reference to subpackage pkg1.
root.pkg2.CompileMaster; // reference to subpackage pkg2.
}
