Java SE project recently added feature to extend Ant based project build script. http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=93509 By default following targets are enabled. -do-init, -init-check, -post-clean, jar Enabling -pre-compile and -pre-pre-compile will allow module like Web services and JAXB generate code before actual source compilation happens.
The -pre-pre-compile target was already added because we needed that for web services. For me I don't see much sense to have the -pre-compile target there as the -pre-comile target is intended for users. Do you really need that ?
If -pre-compile is intended for users, then "-pre-pre-compile" will do for JAXB.
