Does anyone know if there is a way to dump Eclipse's compiler options that
it will use when your Java source files are compiled by the interface? I am
trying to use the javac ANT task to compile the same Java source and I can't
get the two class files to be identical.
I have tried using a -g:none option on the ANT task and turning off all the
debug settings in Eclipse but the class files are still different.
I guess what I am asking for is to be able to see the compiler options
Eclipse is using when it compiles java source.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

A JRE isn't a compiler and doesn't have a compiler, it is a runtime.
When you set your JRE to compile "against" , eclipse compiles using the
set of jars in the JRE when it compiles your java code.
As Eric says eclipse has its own compiler and no two compilers normally
will generate byte for byte the same class file.

Peter,
Sorry for the Brain Fart. I understand what you are saying.
Thanks for the Info.

Please also note that you may use the Eclipse Java compiler independantly
from Eclipse
as a command line tool (instead of javac), see instructions at:
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/jdt- core-home/howto/batch%20compile/batchCompile.html
