Took a quick look through your whole email. I'd suggest, putting this in
your compile target:
<target name="compile" depends="init">
<echo message = "*** Attempting to compile src.dir [${src.dir}]"/>
<javac sourcepath="${src.dir}" srcdir="${src.dir}" ...
...
</target>
Obviously, don't use the ellipses ;) Really all I mean is insert the echo
statement as I've done above... You'll probably see the problem right
away :)
It may be you need to insert the basedir attribute for the <project>
element...
I am curious, what directory are you "standing in" when you kick off your
build? I see that src.dir is a relative directory (meaning
../projects/modules/src)
Personally, I try to not list my directory structures that way. Instead I
prefer to always denote a "root" directory and build everything from that
perspective.
Something like:
project.root = foo
src.dir = ${project.root}/modules/src
Yeah, I know bad example... But you get the idea...

I've read thoroughly the manual and examples but still can't find the reason
for this behavior. First, some pointers to state my case.
- Environment: Windows XP SP3, Ant 1.8.1, jdk1.6.0_02
- My project builds and run fine from the cmdline, provided that the CLASSPATH env.
variable is set. I can even get a working jar executable from it, so the manifest
file (created manually) is also ok. So I tried to repeat the development &
deployment process using Ant.
First, I deleted the CLASSPATH env variable to avoid problems. Rebooted my
system.
This is my package structure (relative paths):
[root.dir]\ant builfiles\ //contains the xml buildfiles for my
projects
[root.dir]\projects\
[root.dir]\projects\modules\
[root.dir]\projects\modules\src\
[root.dir]\projects\modules\src\packages\ // source code for general purpose auxiliary
// classes, w/ subpackages
[root.dir]\projects\modules\src\apps\ // source code for the actual project classes
[root.dir]\projects\modules\src\resources\ // icons and other files required by projects
[root.dir]\projects\WEB-INF\
[root.dir]\projects\WEB-INF\build\ // destdir for the <javac> task
[root.dir]\projects\WEB-INF\dist\ // destdir for the <jar> task
Both the build.xml and build.properties files are located in the "ant
buildfiles" folder.
The following is the build.properties file:
src.dir=../projects/modules/src
build.dir=../projects/WEB-INF/build
dist.dir=../projects/WEB-INF/dist
project.name=gdv
main-class=apps.gdv.v1_0_0.GDVLauncher
jar-classpath=.\\gdv.jar // the double backslash is an escape
sequence
// and it works fine (more details later)
and this is build.xml file:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project name="gdv" default="run">
<property file="build.properties"/>
<target name="clean">
<delete dir="${build.dir}"/>
<delete dir="${dist.dir}"/>
</target>
<target name="init" depends="clean">
<echo>Creating the build directories</echo>
<mkdir dir="${build.dir}"/>
<mkdir dir="${dist.dir}"/>
<!-- this section is an alternate method to include resource files:
<copy todir="${build.dir}/resources">
<fileset dir="${src.dir}/resources"/>
</copy>
Basically is a workaround to get a jar file containing the resource files and a valid manifest despite the whenmanifestonly="skip" property set in the <jar> task. I inspected the resulting manifest file and found it exactly as expected. Manifest and resources are present, the packages with the bytecode obviously not (compilation fails).

I apologize for this long, boring report, I hope you find the time to read it entirely.
Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance for your patience.
