33  * such as Microsoft's VJ++ -- where the classpath as seen in
34  * the System Properties may not be the one the user expects.
35  * The code here is parameterized to try to deal with that.

68          * there.
69          * <p>
70          * NOTE: This must be _compiled_ with sun.java.tools.* (tools.jar)

75          * This has complications on some platforms. For example, under
76          * Microsoft Visual Java ++ (at least, as installed on my test system),
77          * I found that I had to specify paths to both javac and xerces.jar
78          * rather than counting on the shell's path and classpath having
79          * been set to reach these. For that reason I've parameterized this
80          * method with a few system properties, so you can adapt it to your
81          * own system's needs without modifying the code:
82          * <dl>
83          * <dt>com.sun.org.apache.xml.internal.utils.synthetic.javac
84          * <dd>Command line issued to invoke the compiler. Defaults to "javac",
85          * which should work in most systems. In VJ++, try setting it to
86          * "cmd /c %JAVA_HOME%\\bin\javac.exe"
87          * <dt>com.sun.org.apache.xml.internal.utils.synthetic.moreclasspath
88          * <dd>Additional classpath, to be prepended to the one retrieved from
89          * java.class.path. Defaults to "" (empty). In VJ++, try setting it to
90          * point to your copy of xerces.jar, which may not be found otherwise.
91          * TODO: Reconsider prepend versus append!

94          * @param String fileName Which .java file to compile. Note that this may
95          * be relative to the "current directory".
96          * @param String classPath Additional places to look for classes that
97          * this .java file depends upon. Becomes the javac command's
