title: Ignoring Compilation errors - Java
body: <p>I have around 1500 files to compile, in which 15-20 files have compilation errors. These files are not under my control, so I could not do any modification/update/delete. So, i have two questions here.</p>
  
  <p>1) how do i ignore the compilation errors from these 15-20 files and continue to produce the .class file for rest of them. is there any javac commandline option or anything which will ignore the compliation errors and produce the .class files for all other non error files.</p>
  
  <p>2)will the java compiler abort compilation as soon as it sees these errors or will it continue compiling(producing .class files) everything else and at the end then complain about these files with errors.</p>
