Jikes supports some extra options, which can be set be defining the properties shown below prior to invoking the task. The setting for each property will be in affect for all <javac> tasks throughout the build. The Ant developers are aware that this is ugly and inflexible ? expect a better solution in the future. All the options are boolean, and must be set to true or yes to be interpreted as anything other than false. By default, build.compiler.warnings is true, while all others are false.
Property | Description | Default |
build.compiler.emacs | Enable emacs-compatible error messages. | false |
build.compiler.fulldepend | Enable full dependency checking; see the +F switch in the Jikes manual. | false |
build.compiler.pedantic | Enable pedantic warnings. | false |
build.compiler.warnings Deprecated. Use <javac>'s nowarn attribute instead. | Don't disable warning messages. | true |
