Depending on the task, this may be built-in (like the javac task, compiling only the
modified .java files)
Another possibility is to use the 'uptodate' task to set a property when a target file
is more recent than a number
of other files you specify, and then use a target that is executed only when the
property is not set.
<target name="main" depends="check,create" />
<target name="check">
<uptodate property="dont.create" targetfile="./file_to_create">
<srcfiles dir="." includes="**/*.xml" />
</uptodate>
</target>
<target name="create" unless="dont.create">
<your task here, should create the ./file_to_create.../>
</target>
Build the "main" target, this will check first and then create only when target not up
to date.
