Another question on this.  Does ant use javac from
JAVA_HOME\lib\tools.jar to process
the javac action.



Yes, it does. When ant is started as a command line tool. Tools.jar is put in the classpath by the startup shell script under ant 1.5.x and lower, and by Launcher.java in ant 1.6.x. When ant is started from an IDE, the author of the specific IDE plugin or connection class takes care of setting tools.jar in the classpath. Where exactly tools.jar is taken from in the case of Eclipse/Ant, I do not know.
