The ant task JspC exposes all the batch compiler configuration options. It runs the batch compiler under the covers. It is backward compatible with the WAS 5.x version of the JspC ant task.

The following table lists all of the ant task attributes and their batch compiler equivalents.

Below is an example of a build script with multiple targets, each with different attributes.

The following commands are used to launch the script:

On Windows:

ws_ant -Dwas.home=%WAS_HOME% 
       -Dear.path=%EAR_PATH% 
       -Dextract.dir=%EXTRACT_DIR%

ws_ant jspc2 
       -Dwas.home=%WAS_HOME% 
       -Dapp.name=%APP_NAME% 
       -Dwebmodule.name=%MOD_NAME%

ws_ant jspc3 
       -Dwas.home=%WAS_HOME% 
       -Dapp.name=%APP_NAME% 
       -Dwebmodule.name=%MOD_NAME% 
       -Ddir.name=%DIR_NAME%

On UNIX or i5/OS:

ws_ant -Dwas.home=$WAS_HOME 
       -Dear.path=$EAR_PATH 
       -Dextract.dir=$EXTRACT_DIR

ws_ant jspc2 
       -Dwas.home=$WAS_HOME 
       -Dapp.name=$APP_NAME 
       -Dwebmodule.name=$MOD_NAME

ws_ant jspc3 
       -Dwas.home=$WAS_HOME 
       -Dapp.name=$APP_NAME 
       -Dwebmodule.name=$MOD_NAME 
       -Ddir.name=$DIR_NAME

Example build.xml file using the JspC task

           classname="com.ibm.websphere.ant.tasks.JspC"/>

  <target name="jspc1" 
          description="example using  a path to an EAR, and extracting the EAR to a directory">

    <wsjspc wasHome="${was.home}"
            earpath="${ear.path}"
            forcecompilation="true"

            useThreadTagPool="true"
            keepgenerated="true"

  </target>
