problem building nightly drops [message #118640]

hallo folks!

i have a problem building the nightly drops. Every time i try to
compile, i get the following error:

[javac] 1. ERROR in C:\temp\eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.ant.ui\Ant
Editor\org\eclipse\ant\internal\ui\dtd\util\SortedMapFactory .java
[javac] (at line 25)
[javac] return ((String)o1).compareTo(o2);
[javac] ^^^^^^^^^
[javac] The method compareTo(String) in the type String is not

[javac] ----------
[javac] 1 problem (1 error)

C:\temp\eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.ant.ui\build.xml:234: Compile
failed; see the compiler error output for details.

the error loooks like a classical programming error to me, but i cant
believe that a error like this isnt corrected right away, since building
eclipse fails with it.

My operating system is WindowsXP, i use jdk 1.5.05 and ant 1.6.5. i set
the javaSource 1.5 parameter in the build.xml file.
until about 3 weeks ago i was able to build the nightly drops on eclipse
on the same machine. did i miss anything? it also happens on other
machines.
does anyone have an advice on how i could get the build running again?

thanks
marc

the problem occured because i was using java 1.5. ant does not build
when using java 1.5. when using java 1.4 it works the way its supposed to.
