A few months ago, Sun made available an early access compiler for JSR 14. JSR 14 adds Generics to the Java language, and will be available in full in JDK1.5.

The early-access compiler works by "wrapping" around the existing JDK1.4 compiler, and comes with helper .sh and .bat files. They work fine, but using those wrapper scripts from within Ant wasn't the easiest thing in the world.

So I hacked together my own Ant compiler-adapter for this early access compiler, which you can download below.
