[Scons-users] building Java classes from two directories

Rob,

If I remember correctly Java sources are handled a bit unintuitively. If
you pass in *.java files then I think they are all built together, but if
you pass in directories, all the directories are "assumed" to be
parallelizable; thus, if you pass in two directories, those directories
will appear as separate javac commands.

If your code looks like:

A/B
A/C

source = [ A/B, A/C ] yields javac A/B and javac A/C // I don't personally
like this behavior

source = [ A ] yields javac A

source = [ "all java files" ] yields javac F1 F2 ... FN

V/R,
William
