ahh now i get it. This sounds smart. To be honest, i never ever dealt with com.sun.tools.javac.Main directly during my 8 years of java development ;-) My way was also quite nice because now i have my own AnnotationProcessor variant, which will stay active until you guys fix the one in the 2.1.x release... or i can use Ricks patched jar of course.
