Jikes 1,20 EXTDIRS

I have SET EXTDIRS=E:\j2sdk1.4.2_04\jre\lib\ext

this directory is full of jars.

When I type

Jikes *.java

I get the error

*** Semantic Warning: The file "E:/j2sdk1.4.2_04/jre/lib/ext/" does
not exist or else is not a valid zip file.

Is the documenation wrong? Are you supposed to list individual jars?

Ha ! have the same problem here. What I ended up doing was to list all
the jars in the ext dir after the classpath. Works OK but would like
to know the correct usage of EXTDIRS.
