> My fault. I forgot to tell you that compilerarg is an optioanl ant-contrib
task and if you want to use it you have to download the tasks from the
ant-contrib site: http://ant-contrib.sourceforge.net/, also an installation
howto is available there. But instead try this
<javac .........>
<classpath>
<pathelement location="yourdir"/>
</classpath>
</javac>
