DESCRIPTION
Jikes translates Java(TM) source files to bytecode. Features
include strict adherence to the language specification, automatic
makefile generation and incremental compilation. It is maintained
by the Jikes Project, http://ibm.com/developerworks/opensource.
OPTIONS
Jikes may be invoked with the following command-line options:
- -classpath path
-
use path for CLASSPATH
- -d directory
-
write class files in specified directory
- -debug
-
no effect (recognized for compatibility)
- -depend
-
recompile all used classes
- -deprecation
-
report uses of deprecated features
- -g
-
debug (generate LocalVariableTable attribute)
- -nowarn
-
do not issue warning messages
- -nowrite
-
do not write any class files
- -O
-
do not write LineNumberTable
- -verbose
-
list files read and written
- -Xdepend
-
same as -depend
- -Xstdout
-
write error messages to standard output, not stderr
- ++
-
compile in incremental mode
- +B
-
do not invoke bytecode generator
- +CSO
-
Select to use same classpath search order as javac.
- +D
-
report errors immediately in emacs-form without buffering
- +DR=filename
-
write report of dependencies to specified file
- +E
-
list errors in emacs-form
- +F
-
do full dependence check except for Zip and Jar files
- +Kname=TypeKeyWord
-
map name to type keyword
- +M
-
generate makefile dependencies
- +P
-
Pedantic compilation - issues lots of warnings
- +Tnn
-
set value of tab to nn spaces
- +U
-
do full dependence check including Zip and Jar files
- +Z
-
treat cautions as errors
An argument may have the form @file; each line of file is
then interpreted as an argument, except that lines beginning with
@ are not expanded recursively.
FILES
Jikes requires a colon-separated list of directories or files
that tell it where to look for any needed class or source files, for
example ".:$HOME/java/lib/classes.zip". A definition given with the
environment variable JIKESPATH takes precedence over one given
with CLASSPATH; a definition using the -classpath option
takes precedence over any value specified via the environment.
