Thanks, Stefano. I ran into the exact same issue as Jeff while using JAXB’s xjc compiler with Ant. And thanks, Jens, for the sleep tip. Everybody’s comments saved me many hours of work.

The comment facility did not allow me to include XML elements…

I had to include an additional sleep call.

Thanks a lot for your tip, especially for the link to the commit.

I had to include an additional

between the touch and the javac command. This was neccessary because my target directory was created just before calling touch. Therefore the lastmodified value of the target directory and my package-info.java file where identical. The javac-task does not compare using ‘>=’, but ‘>’.

Thanx for the tip but I can not see any difference between the two ant tasks… I suppose it should be the touch but, to be confirmed please.

Thanks for this. I spent 1.5 days trying to work out what was going wrong. I was using Netbeans to generate the wsit configuration and classes, then switching over to eclipse and using ant to build my application.

Thanks Stefano!
You saved my day. I had the same problem as Jeff with my jaxb-ri generated schema and it took me a couple of hours to figure out that package-info.class had not been compiled. Your post explained well why that happened.
