http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18322 Jikes no longer supports the -encoding flag, causes an error if specified Summary: Jikes no longer supports the -encoding flag, causes an error if specified Product: Ant Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: Other Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Jikes Task should ignore the "encoding" attribute, since Jikes no longer supports it (and jikes will fail with an error if it is specified). Because the Catalina folks are using Ant as their JSP backend, and they still pass in an encoding parameter to the Javac Task, this causes Catalina compilation to fail (when it's not technically their fault). That is why this is marked Critical.
