I'm getting the following javac ant build error. I tried using pathconvert to replace the dot separators with slashes, but that didn't work. Suggestions please?

ERROR:
[javac] myfile.java:26: package test.schema.filetest does not exist
[javac] import test.schema.filetest.FileROOT;

Solution 1

Use a proper IDE like Eclipse or Netbeans.
Both are free.
Both will tell you where the problem is.

Eclipse Download [^]

Netbeans Download [^]

Java

[javac] myfile.java:26: package test.schema.filetest does not exist
[javac] import test.schema.filetest.FileROOT;

Tells you clearly that your java file "myfile.java" has an error in line 26.
It also tells you what is wrong: "package test.schema.filetest does not exist"
And it tells you that the import of "test.schema.filetest.FileROOT" is not available.

Solution 2

I discovered the problem: when building my archive jar, I had some of the import nodes within my basedir shown below.
PREVIOUS:
basedir="bin/frms/schema"
includes="filetest/**/*.class">
SOLUTION:
basedir="bin"
includes="frms/schema/filetest /**/*.class">
