Description Bala Balakumran CLA 2005-10-17 15:41:09 EDT 
We have an eclipse based application that calls 
org.eclipse.jdt.internal.compiler.batch.Main.compile() for directly
compiling some java files.  When A.java references B.java
and only A.java is passed to the compile we get the compile error message
class B not found.  This is happening in 3.1.1

When the org.eclipse.jdt.core_3.1.0 jar is used instead of the
_3.1.1.jar the problem goes away.  (Both A.java and B.java are compiled
by the compiler) Also the application works 
correctly using eclipse 3.0.1 as well.

So this seems like a bug introduced in 3.1.1
Comment 1 Olivier Thomann CLA 2005-10-17 15:43:40 EDT 
Could you please provide a test case that works with 3.1.0, but fails with 3.1.1?
Comment 2 Olivier Thomann CLA 2005-10-17 15:44:06 EDT 
Philippe, I will investigate it.
Comment 3 Philipe Mulet CLA 2005-10-17 16:07:29 EDT 
Olivier - would that be related to the fix for bug 110826
Comment 4 Olivier Thomann CLA 2005-10-17 17:25:01 EDT 
I don't think so.
bug 110826 is about starting the batch compiler. Here it seems to be related
about compiling dependant classes.
Waiting for a test case with steps to reproduce.

Comment 6 Olivier Thomann CLA 2005-10-17 19:54:29 EDT 
Using 3.1.1 jar, I could successfully recompile the batch compiler source
providing only org\eclipse\jdt\internal\compiler\batch\Main.java.
So we definitely need a test case.
I will attach the log retrieved using the verbose mode.

Closing as REMIND.
Please reopen when the requested test case and steps to reproduce are available.

Reopen. I'll try remogte debugging tomorrow.

Closing as WORKSFORME. Seems to be a setting problem.
