Build fails with compilation errors

[asfimport]

Steve Dertien (Bug 16607): When I extract the 1.8 build of Jmeter to disk and run the build.bat file it fails with the following compilation errors:

compile_all: [javac] Compiling 316 source files to C:\ptc\jakarta-jmeter\build [javac] C:\jakarta- jmeter\src\jorphan\org\apache\jorphan\collections\Data.java:520: cannot resolve symbol [javac] symbol : method split (java.lang.String) [javac] location: class java.lang.String [javac] setHeaders(contents[0].split(delimiter)); [javac] ^ [javac] C:\jakarta- jmeter\src\jorphan\org\apache\jorphan\collections\Data.java:524: cannot resolve symbol [javac] symbol : method split (java.lang.String) [javac] location: class java.lang.String [javac] setLine(contents[x++].split(delimiter)); [javac] ^ [javac] C:\jakarta- jmeter\src\jorphan\org\apache\jorphan\test\AllTests.java:222: cannot resolve symbol [javac] symbol : method split (java.lang.String) [javac] location: class java.lang.String [javac] Iterator classes = ClassFinder.findClassesThatExtend(searchPaths.split(","), [javac] ^ [javac] 3 errors

When I revert to the 1.7 build these errors do not occur.

Severity: normal OS: All
