Cliff,
Try ant. It is easier than makefiles, and specifically designed for Java
projects. It works as follows:
Instead of a Makefile, you write an XML file that describes targets, you
usually call this file build.xml. The targets typically similar to the
following:
<target name="classes">
<javac srcdir="src/java" destdir="lib/classes">
</target>
<target name="all" depends="classes,javadoc" />
For a complete example see:
* Orion Primer
http://www.orionserver.com/
Ant is an Apache project.
* Ant Homepage
http://jakarta.apache.org/ant/
Good luck, and let me know if you run into trouble. Note that you should
use patchset 9 (not 8 or before) with Ant. And the Linux JDK is known to
cause trouble with Ant at times (creating directories with special
symbols in it).
