Without knowing how you are creating the classpath for ant to use, it is impossible to say why it is not working for you. It may be something as simple as using the wildcard in a way that has ant expanding it rather than it being passed through to javac.

I am using ant 1.8.4.  My JAVA_HOME is set to the location of JDK 7.  I have a 
set of classes that use a list of jars from a given library location.

When I use command line jdk to do the compile it gives different results from 
using ant script to do the compile.  The classpath definition is same in both 
cases.

In the command line execution, it expands the wildcard classpath that is 
introduced in JDK 6.

In ANT execution, it does not expand the list, so the compile fails.

 From what I have read, ANT is supposed to support wildcard classpaths with 
version 1.8.2 and I am on version 1.8.4.

So, the questions I have are

-  Which javac does ant use? Is it in the ANT code that doesn't process the 
wildcard classpath?

-  What role does JAVA_HOME play when using ANT?

-  How can I resolve the issue, so I can use ANT with wildcard classpath ?


Thank you
