do u confirm wat u're trying to do is not re-generate the java files from the
idl if there was no modifs since the last cross compil ?
if so, here a previous answer I got on the same concern for xdoclet generated
files:
The first step is done using either <vailable> or <dependset>. The latter is
more generic, but doesn't set a property when doing something (deleting the
targets when it found they are out-of-date vs. the sources). The former set the
property you need, but supports only 1-to-1 (using a mapper) or many-to-1
relationship, and doesn't delete the out-of-date target files. If you go for
<dependset>, you need an additional <available> usually 2 find out a-posteriori
if it did something. If you do with <available>, you may need 2 delete the
target files.
The second step is done in a separate target executed conditionally based on
the target that check whether the target files are up-to-date or not, which
sets a property accordingly. All this needs 2 be wrapped in yet another target
that depends on the 2 previous one.
<target name="gen" depends="gen-needed?, do-gen" />
<target name="gen-needed?">
...
<!-- set property gen-targetfiles-up2date only when target files
are really up-todate. Do nothing if they're not.
-->
<property name="gen-targetfiles-up2date" value="whatever" />
</target>
<target name="do-gen"
unless="gen-targetfiles-up2date">
<xdoclet ... />
</target>
all targets are detailed in ANT doc.
seb.
