But if i try javac *.java , the compiler doesn't generate any class files. Why doesn't he generate class files for the java files, that work fine? thanks snehls Back to top jAnO!

I can only guess you misunderstood what Thomas was saying. But to cut to the chase. I doubt you have compiled your packaged classes correctly, and one class that requires another class (possibly in the same package) is the problem. Could you describe - your package structure (folders and Java source files) *exactly*, - then show the exact command you are using to compile the .java files, - and from where (which directory/folder) did you compile them? -- Andrew Thompson physci.org 1point1c.org javasaver.com lensescapes.com athompson.info "As it is I'm climbing up an endless wall.

I'm writing a build-tool for a bigger Java Project (about 700 classes), and the main problem is to compile the sources. First i wrote a file(ALL_FILES) with the Locations of all java files in it and compiled with "javac -classpath various.jar -d compiled @ALL_FILES 2> ERRORS" the compiler tells me several errors (theres a package missing and some other stuff in several files). Thats OK so far, but the compiler tells me the erros and doesn't generate class files for the files that "work". Furthermore its quite strange that compiling works fine with Eclipse. So the point is, is there a option for the compiler to make him generate class files for working parts of a project, despite other independent parts are erroneous?

And javac definitely doesn't? I'd be surprised if it does. My theory (though I haven't actually read the source code of Eclipse to make sure), is that Eclipse actually modifies source files with errors in them so that they become valid files during the compilation pass. I believe all that they basically replace the bodies of broken methods with simply a "throw new UnresolvedCompilationError()" statement. - Oliver Back to top snehls Guest Posted: Tue Sep 13, 2005 12:10 pm    Post subject: Re: Problem with compiling files in a folder Does anyone know how or if one can use eclipse to compile from the command line ?

Run->External Tools But this really seems to be fighting Eclipse rather than using it. And this is probably not what you meant. I'm guessing you mean "Does anyone know how or if one can compile using Eclipse, from the command line?" The answer to which is "I don't know." - Oliver Back to top Dale King Guest Posted: Thu Sep 15, 2005 3:27 am    Post subject: Re: Problem with compiling files in a folder snehls wrote: Quote: Does anyone know how or if one can use eclipse to compile from the command line ? Yes, you can. See <http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/jdt-core-home/howto/batch%20compile/batchCompile.html> But I am not sure if you get all the benefits of compiling within Eclipse. -- Dale King Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         AppletTalk.com Forum Index -> Java Help All times are GMT Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Java Newsgroups----------------Java DiscussionsWeb-based java games comp.lang.java 3D Graphics API's for Java Java: Support and criticism Java System Announcements comp.lang.java.api JavaBeans Java and CORBA Java and Databases comp.lang.java.developer Java GUI Toolkits Java Help comp.lang.java.javascript JVM, native methods and hardware comp.lang.java.misc Java Language Programming Security and Java comp.lang.java.setup Java Software Tools comp.lang.java.tech ibm.software.java.linux  Non-English Java Newsgroups----------------Java Language (German)Language Java (Français)Java (Italian)  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2006 phpBB Group SEO toolkit © 2004-2006 webmedic.
