Do you have a CLASSPATH set? Does it have quotes in it? If so, remove
them. If you want to debug this, turn echo on in the ant.bat file and
see what is going wrong.

Any performance improvement using will depend significantly
on what you are doing in parallel and on what hardware resources your
platform provides.
For example, the tasks could be interacting in ways you don't
expect. Maybe these tasks block each other somehow. I have no idea.

It's better if you can show the actual error printed by Ant in most
cases and the corresponding line in your build. Ant usually includes
line numbers and these can help know where to look.
Marcelo,
I'm guessing that you are seeing these lines in your manifest and not as
the direct output of pathconvert. If that is the case, then there is
really no problem. There is a FAQ about this:

You have to think like Ant. Ant looks for addXXX and createXXX methods.
So look in Javac.java and you will find:
public ImplementationSpecificArgument createCompilerArg()
So call that and then configure the resulting object - i.e call
setValue(), setLine(), whatever you want to do.

This is expected behaviour. When the Child instance is added to MyTask,
it is not yet configured (i.e. its attributes are not yet set) . It will
be configured by the time your task's execute() method is called. The
normal strategy is just to accumulate the Child objects in a collection

I think you may be misunderstanding what "includes" means here. The
"includes" attribute is used against the source directory to decide
which files to include in the compilation. In other words, "includes"
functions as a filter on the set of files from your srcDir. If you add

I doubt building from source will solve your problems.
To solve these sorts of problems, one thing you should try is to comment

Just to update - this is true for in-VM Java tasks only. External tasks such
