    text
    copied!<p>Hallo,</p> <p>I cannot compile my project using an ant build script. The error message:</p> <pre><code>Ant cannot find symbol... </code></pre> <p>I read about creating <code>build.xml</code>, but it seems it is not enough. My project directory has the following layout:</p> <p>poject</p> <ul> <li>src <ul> <li>gen </li> <li>...</li> </ul></li> </ul> <p>libarie_with_needed_java.file</p> <ul> <li>src <ul> <li>clients</li> <li>helper</li> </ul></li> </ul> <p>How do I work with external references? Ant cannot find <code>android jar</code>. The <code>build.xml</code> file looks as follows:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt; ==================================================================== --&gt; &lt;project name="test" default="main" basedir="."&gt; &lt;!-- ==================================================================== Declare global properties for reuse and control of script ==================================================================== --&gt; &lt;!-- For project source files --&gt; &lt;property name="src.dir" location = "src/de/test"/&gt; &lt;property name="common.link" location = "../test-common/common"/&gt; &lt;!-- For compiled/output files. --&gt; &lt;property name="build.dir" location = "build/source"/&gt; &lt;!-- For class libraries and dependency files. --&gt; &lt;property name="lib.dir" location = "lib"/&gt; &lt;property name="sdk.dir" location = "../android-sdk-windows/" /&gt; &lt;!-- ==================================================================== Einstiegspunnkt - Target main ==================================================================== --&gt; &lt;target name="main" depends="compile" description="getting started"&gt; &lt;echo message="start main target"/&gt; &lt;/target&gt; &lt;!-- ==================================================================== Übersetzen - Target compile ==================================================================== --&gt; &lt;target name="compile" depends="init"&gt; &lt;echo message="start compile target"/&gt; &lt;javac srcdir="${src.dir}" destdir="${build}" debug="on"/&gt; &lt;classpath refid="classpath"/&gt; &lt;/target&gt; &lt;!-- ==================================================================== Initialisierungen - Target init ==================================================================== --&gt; &lt;target name="init" description="create needed directories"&gt; &lt;echo message="start init target"/&gt; &lt;mkdir dir="${build}"/&gt; &lt;/target&gt; &lt;/project&gt; </code></pre> <p>I created this file using examples from websites and the file that Eclipse generated.</p> <p>I have removed the following external properties files (to simplify the problem):</p> <pre><code>&lt;property file="local.properties" /&gt; &lt;property file="build.properties" /&gt; &lt;property file="default.properties" /&gt; </code></pre> <p>I need to include the external .java files from a different src location.</p> <p>I need to know how to copy the external files in the project and compile everything together.</p> <p>Thanks, Marcel</p>
