Problems compiling outside of app server

[L Duperval]

Hi,
I'm trying to use ant to compile some JSP's to make sure they will deploy properly. My problem is this: when certain JSP's are compiled outside of the container (Weblogic) I get compile errors that look like this:

    23. import ca.masq.fido.common.datatype.FinancialResultByPeriod; //[ /DailyFinancialTransactionReportResult.jsp; Line: 7]
               ^--------------------------------------------------^
*** Error: The import "ca/masq/fido/common/datatype/FinancialResultByPeriod" is not valid, since it does not name a type in a package.
    23. import ca.masq.fido.common.datatype.FinancialResultByPeriod; //[ /DailyFinancialTransactionReportResult.jsp; Line: 7]
                                            ^---------------------^
*** Error: The imported simple name "FinancialResultByPeriod" names a different type than the other use of the name at location /tmp/jspc/report/jsp_servlet/__DailyFinancialTransactionReportResult.java:20.

Inside the container, it works fine. If I remove the import statement, I get compile errors saying that the above class can't be found (at the location where it is being used). I don't really understand what the problem is. We're using jikes 1.17 to compile outside of the container.

You'll need to be sure that the classes in the ca.masw.fido package are included as part of the classpath in the ant task.
There is an Ant Forum if you are having difficulties setting up the ant compile task.

Argh! Never mind. Seems like when you're too close to something, it's hard to see the forest from the trees. The classpath was messed up in one particular instance. :-(
