Description lleland 2004-08-25 12:46:25 UTC 
[ JDK VERSION : J2SE 1.5.0 ]

There is currently no way to specify extra arguments for any build tool, like the compiler, through the project UI. For example: We cannot configure a compilation with the -Xlint argument.

We need an argument configuration in the project properties for each of the build tools: compiler for source, compiler for tests, jar, and javadoc. This will allow us to use new arguments (like -Xlint) or implementer specific arguments.
Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2004-08-25 19:28:55 UTC 
Compiler args: see issue #46995. Unstructured args for other tools may
be considered on a case-by-case basis acc. to the ability of Ant to
handle them, but probably not for 4.0; all such cases can be handled
by a simple override in build.xml, but not through the GUI.
