Allan,
Thanks for the reply. Seems that when using automake and autoconf,
the following lines are inserted in the Makefiel generated by configure:
JAVAC = javac
JAVAROOT = $(top_builddir)
$(JAVAC) -d $(JAVAROOT) $(JAVACFLAGS) $?
So the .class files always end up in the top-level build directory! Any
ideas how one can over-ride this behaviour using autoconf/automake?
Yes, I'd looked at the output of javac -verbose as a posibilty for auto
generating dependencies between java source files. Can't say I fancy
parsing the output of this. I was hoping for something like "cc -M foo.c"

I think it is
javac -d /my/dest/class/dir ... dog.java
... should create a /my/dest/class/dir/dog.class

You might get some kind of makedep capability through parsing the output
of "javac -verbose"
