Hi,
Sorry, this was intended for the list. I need to revisit my email
client's settings for "reply to".
Best regards,
George

Hi Stepan,
Right.
The running of the "get" task could always be conditional on some
property passed into Ant.
e.g.
-DIAmInAHurryAndDontWantToRelyOnTheNetwork=true

And to detect whether it is stale or not you need network. Right?
It is very inconvenient to find out in the middle of the build that
network is too slow and it will take hours to download new version of
a jar file. You know, it always happens when you are in a big hurry :-)
Thanks,
Stepan

Hi Alexey,
The "usetimestamp" attribute of Ant's "get" task kind of offers this
functionality. Setting the attribute value to "true" means that the
download only proceeds if the local copy of the resource is missing or
stale.
There is more information on this at
http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/get.html
