Using ant or javac with M-x compile

I am using ant to compile Java source using the native windows version of
XEmacs. If I compile my code, errors are generated in the compilation buffer
that look something like:

 

C:\Documents and Settings\johnb\My Documents\Together
Projects\TestMgr\JavaSrc\dataModel\SSLConnection.java:63: illegal start of
type

  private boolean sendFile( String name, )

                                         ^

C:\Documents and Settings\johnb\My Documents\Together
Projects\TestMgr\JavaSrc\dataModel\SSLConnection.java:353: <identifier>
expected

}

 ^

C:\Documents and Settings\johnb\My Documents\Together
Projects\TestMgr\JavaSrc\dataModel\SSLConnection.java:63: missing method
body, or declare abstract

  private boolean sendFile( String name, )

 

Unfortunately, I can't use compilation-next-error or
compilation-previous-error, I assume because the paths are dos like and not
unix?

 

Is there any way around this problem? 

 

Thanks,
