Can the "uptodate" task be used with an absolute file pathname for a
source file?
(I think) I want to something like this:
<uptodate property="isUpToDate" targetfile=".flagfile" >
<srcfiles dir=".">
<include name="${sourceFile}" />
</srcfiles>
</uptodate>
If property sourceFile is a relative name, the name works as a file
pattern, and everything works.
However, if sourceFile is an absolute pathname (on Windows, so
starting with "C:/..."), the uptodate task doesn't work. (It
always thinks the target file is up to date.)
Can the uptodate task be used with absolute pathnames?
Thanks,
Daniel
