I was trying to compile all the java files under that "/com" directory, but no good. The reason is some of the files under that source tree are not ready for build. That is why I found a way to build files under some subdir. But since there are some depends, so I have to force some files to build before others. I don't know how you can "configure the task" in that situation ? In the case that I have given, the ANT always build the files in that order " com/contractor/useraccount/** com/manager/useraccount/** com/supplier/useraccount/** com/users/useraccount/** " NOT " com/manager/useraccount/** com/contractor/useraccount/** com/supplier/useraccount/** com/users/useraccount/** " -CJ

Importance: Low If you configure the task correctly the file order doesn't matter: the compiler will figure out the proper order. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Jeffrey E.
