ant problem when building Irmis

[lecorche@ganil.fr (Lecorche Eric)]

Although being an Epics beginner, I would like to perform an evaluation 
of the Irmis package.

When I run "ant deploy" on the db directory, I get the following errors 
during the Java compilation :

(The first error message -in french- says that the "javax.crypto" 
package can't be found and that I have to check the CLASSPATH 
environment variable).

As it is the first time I am using ant, I suspect I am missing something 
but I don't see what : I checked that JAVA_HOME, ANT_HOME and PATH are 
correctly set ; then, I verified that if doing a standard Java 
compilation (not using ant), it compiles correctly and for example finds 
the missing "javax.crypto" package. I came along the ant web site but 
don't see there any way to solve the problem ; finally, I tried to 
understand the build.xml configuration file without finding any clue.

By the way, when using ant, is the CLASSPATH environment variable used, 
or is the classpath /only/ built from the configuration build.xml file ?

Thanks in advance for any help
