How large is your codebase that you are looking to use incremental
compilation. Most java compilers are pretty fast and re-compiling 1000
classes doesn't take very long (couple seconds).
The issue is that the tool that determines if a class needs to be re-
compiled must fully understan
It depends on what you think of "incremental compilation".
- differences in the number of files are compiled
- differences inside files are not recognized: the whole file will be
recompiled.
But these is not Ant specific - this is based on the underlying compiler,

Hi,

The most obvious example of these limitations is that the task can&#
