to be a bit more specific, the project file (depend.xml) :
<project name="Depend" default="depend" basedir=".">
<property name="build_dir" value="./test" />
<property name="subtree" value="lbri/common" />
<target name="prepare">
<tstamp/>
<mkdir dir="${build_dir}" />
</target>
<target name="depend" depends="prepare">
<depend srcdir="./${subtree}"
destdir="${build_dir}/${subtree}"
closure="yes"
/>
</target>
<target name="compile" depends="prepare">
<javac srcdir="."
destdir="${build_dir}"
includes="${subtree}/**/*.java"
/>
</target>
</project>
do a compile: ant -f depend.xml compile
do touch XX.java or insert some dummy function in XX.java,
where XX.java is used by a lot of other classes. And do a
ant -debug -f depend.xml
Output:

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 3 seconds
but it doesn't do anything!
This is the most simple case I can think of, and still
no files are deleted. Maybe I miss something so obvious that
I just don't see it, so hopefully someone out there can help me
Cheers
