The ant task JspC exposes all the batch compiler configuration options. It executes the batch compiler under the covers. It is backward compatible with the WebSphere Application Server 5.x version of the JspC ant task. The following table lists all the ant task attribute and their batch compiler equivalents.

JspC attribute	Equivalent batch complier parameter
earPath	-ear.path
warPath	-war.path
src Same as warPath, for backward compatiblity	-war.path
enterpriseAppName	-enterpriseapp.name
responseFile	-response.file

fileName	-filename -config.root
configRoot	-config.root
cellName	-cell.name

Below is an example of a build script with multiple targets, each with different attributes. The following commands are used to execute 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%

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
