If you are using the ant command-line script then it's setting a
classpath before it invokes ant's main class. This classpath likely
includes the rt.jar you are trying to avoid, a bad idea if you ask me. I
would downgrade my JDK before I removed classes from rt.jar or moved
another jar in front of
Hmm...
Normally I use eclipse to compile and it is able to compile fine as it allows
you to have the jdk libraries at the bottom of your classpath. I don't think
this would be something that is specific to eclipse so there must be someway to
do this in ant as well?
Maybe it is the bootclasspa
I don't think you can "not" use rt.jar, unless you either:
1) Use the Endorsed API override mechanism if it applies to this
particular API, to pick up this particular API from a different jar
than rt.jar
2) Use a different bootclasspath, to use a different "fixed up" rt.jar
Javac otherwise uses
