javac in Ant errors without detail

[Agador Paloi]

Hello jolly ranchers -

I am trying to compile some java programs with ant and I am getting errors without any detail .

I have tried using -v on the ant command as well as verbose="yes" on the target without much help.


this is part of the output - its too big for the entire thing:

    the build file target looks like this:

<target name="compile.test.pgms"  >
     <description> STEP compile.test.pgms - compile atlas programs in the integrated source directories
    </description>
    <javac srcdir="${src}" destdir="${class}"  classpathref="compile.classpath"  fork="true" memoryinitialsize="256M" memorymaximumsize="1024M"
          executable=""C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_17\bin\javac""  verbose="yes"   listfiles="yes"  compiler="javac1.7" />
         
  </target>    

       




output :

It would appear that you have errors in your source code, but those errors are not being displayed. Try not forking the java compiler (let the JVM running the Ant build script do the compiling), that should result in the errors being listed.
