I guess you are talking about improving Compiler rather than an Ant task that was layered on top of it. This one shoudl certainly not depend on Ant. > Compile should be able to run standalone and accept these inputs (via > properties or arguments or any other practical method): > a list of source directories containing clojure > code.

I need to read up on clojure.core/compile to understand how it uses the classpath and classloaders first. > I'm currently working through the links returned by a Google search > for custom class loader. URLClassLoader will most likely be all you need, or you could use clojure.lang.DynamicClassloader. OK, I skimmed through compile and RT and it seems as if you "just" needed to construct a proper URLClassLoader with the directories you need on the classpath, set this one as the context classloader and set *use-context-classloader* to true before you invoke compile.
