In other cases then you need to make timestamp dependency by yourself (for example in case then you use exec task) you can use <uptodate> task

not exactly. that paragraph continues:

"the tasks themselves can do dependency checking or not. A full java build using Jikes is so fast that dependency checking is relatively moot, while many of the other tasks (but not all), compare the timestamp of the source file with that of the destination file before acting."\

as well as jikes, most tasks that you'll want to use do a timestamp check (javac, war, zip, to name a few).

hi,

the following statement:

"Some of the features of make, specifically inference rules and dependency checking are not included in Ant."

means that ant will do full build always regardlesss of source has changed or not?

any comments!!!

thanks,
