Hello,
in most cases I have found that running ant in verbose
or in debug mode by supplying -v or -d options
corresoindingly helps find what is going wrong.
In your case, I can make only the following random
guesses:
1) Are your java sources located in src/ directly? If
you have some packages than you have to declare
<srcfiles> in the following way:
<srcfiles dir="src" includes="**/*.java"/>
2) I found that using relative locations in "to"
attribute of <mapper> to be tricky. I would rewrite it
a little bit:
<property name="project.classes"
location="build/classes"/>
<uptodate property="is.uptodate">
<srcfile dir="src" includes="**/*.java"/>
<mapper type="glob" from="*.java"
to="${project.classes}/*.class"/>
</uptodate>
Regards
Ivan
