Description From Ian Gable 2010-05-13 12:36:14

The javac is outputing these warnings when running the installer. I think this
could be cause some people to think there was a problem with their build.

For example:

  [javac]
/home/nimbus/Downloads/nimbus/nimbus-2.4-oldpatricka/nimbus-2.4-plus-multicpu/messaging/gt4.0/java/common/build.xml:74:
warning: 'includeantruntime' was
 not set, defaulting to build.sysclasspath=last; set to false for repeatable
builds


There are about 10 of these warnings in the build.

I've never seen that one, can you provide your ant and java versions. 
Thankyou.

I'm using:

javac 1.6.0_20

Apache Ant version 1.8.1 compiled on April 30 2010

Apparently ant has been including all of its associated libraries in the javac
classpath all these years (that is surprising...) and since 1.8 is warning
about it.

Fix committed to master for 2.5
