The environment is Ant 1.4Beta2, RedHat Linux 7.0, Sun JDK 1.3.1, jikes
1.14 installed from the RPM and is in the path.
When I do this:
<property name="build.compiler" value="jikes"/>
in my build file, I'm getting this (ant -v):
-----------------------------------------------------

-----------------------------------------------------
Jikes does work fine on its own and called form make. Straight javac
works OK. I have the same problem if I attempt to compile any other
project with jikes, not just my own stuff.
If I set JIKES_HOME (as per manual), jikes doesn't even get called.
I had all this working fine with one of the early Ant 1.4 alpha CVS
snapshots. Any clues?
