External compiler engine takes name of the file, strips an extension and displays "Compiling <filename_without_extension>" in status line. It causes problem with RMIStubCompiler, because RMIStubCompiler uses name of the class instead of name of file. For example if test.rmi.RMIImpl is to be compiled, message "Compiling test.rmi" is displayed. My suggestion is to add an oportunity to create own messages in subclasses of ExternalCompilerGroup.
Priority is changed to P4 (normal).
