Hi,

is it possible to use the IBM incremental java compiler without the
Eclipse workspace GUI.

Thanks for any help

Tim

There's an independent project called ECJ that provides the Eclipse Java
compiler on the command line:
http://sab39.dev.netreach.com/Blog/12?pm=18&vobId=141 RedHat is
including packages for it in Fedora Core 4.

Hope this helps,

FYI, the Eclipse Java compiler can be used as a command line tool. AFAIK,
ECJ is only a particular distribution of it (in executable form).
Here are some info about running the batch compiler from JAR:
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/jdt- core-home/howto/batch%20compile/batchCompile.html

Note that the batch compiler isn't incremental. It needs the Eclipse
front-end to gain the incremental recompilation functionality.

However, nothing prevent you from using Eclipse with no GUI, in pure
headless mode. And then, you can use incremental compiler services.
