Hello, and thanks for all of your help in advance.

I'm using Ant version 1.6.5 with the JDK v. 1.4.2.  I'm attempting to compile a
project that uses Xerces v. 2.9.1.  In order to compile properly, the XML API
included with Xerces needs to override the default XML API that comes with
JDK.1.4.2.  As I understand it, this is done by setting the "endorsed
directory" location to be the location of the Xerces jar files.

Unfortunately, using the <compilerarg> tag inside the <javac> task doesn't seem
to be accomplishing this.

Here is my target:

  <target name="compile>
    <mkdir dir="${build.classes.dir}"/>
    <javac destdir="${build.classes.dir}" debug="true">
      <src path="${src.dir}"/>
      <src path="${build.src.dir}"/>
      <classpath refid="compile.classpath"/>
      <compilerarg value="-endorseddirs lib"/>
    </javac>
  </target>

Here is the console output:

$ ant

   [delete] Deleting directory C:\Projects\Project\build

BUILD FAILED

Any ideas on what I'm doing incorrectly?
