I use Ant 1.8.4 without troubles, not completly sure but I guess your problem is you use the JRE instead of the JDK

Is "C:\Program Files\Java\jre7" really a JDK? Not just the JRE?.

I'm not sure if anybody has ever built Apache Flex with ant 1.8. I
think 1.7.0 is the tested version.

Was setting up a new PC to be able to build the flex-sdk from the development branch and ran into an error with ANT. I ran a standard Ant build from the Flex-SDK folder (root of flex folder). It seems to be having an issue with Java, but the paths are correct. Are we still supposed to be on jdk 1.6 instead of 1.7?


Environment:
Flex-sdk - lastest as of yesterday (cloned main repo and changed to development branch).
Ant - 1.8
Java - 1.7
Flashglobal - 11.1

All the environmental variables are set and their bin folders included in the path.


BUILD FAILED
D:\Development\Flex\Flex-SDK\build.xml:344: The following error occurred while executing this line: D:\Development\Flex\Flex-SDK\modules\build.xml:158: The following error occurred while executing this line: D:\Development\Flex\Flex-SDK\modules\thirdparty\xerces-patch\build.xml:52: Unable to find a javac compiler;

Perhaps JAVA_HOME does not point to the JDK.
It is currently set to "C:\Program Files\Java\jre7"
