Hello, This question may have been posted before.
I'm interested in something like a 'dependency aware pattern'. When a specific task processes files, it normally uses input and output filenames (probably using some patterns), that only differ in the extension of their filenames. Provided this, what is the easiest way to implement check for the time of the input files against the time of the existing output files (if any) at the destination directory. I would like to see a solution that does the checking with the time of the source file and the output file time, and then decides whether to pass it to the processing task to generate the new output file. I can implement this myself, just want to know whether somebody did something like this already with the stadard task set comming with ANT. Regards, Nik
