Diane,
When I try your suggestion, I get::
D:\etrade\af\apps\examples\..\shared\..\..\pkgs\unpack-individual-gzfile-bui
ld.xml:90: Class org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.UpToDate doesn't support the
"srcfile" attribute
(Also the ${efc.jar} was just a typo).
When I use a construct like::
<target name="checkJarUpToDate" depends="compile" >
<uptodate property="efc.jarBuild.notRequired"
targetfile="${efc.jarfile}" >
<srcfiles dir= "${efc.build}" includes="**/*.class"/>
</uptodate>
<echo>
efc.jarBuild.notRequired= ${efc.jarBuild.notRequired}
</echo>
</target>
It works properly. But when I use a one-to-one relationship, it fails.
So Steve, your theory may be correct.
Thanks,
-- Chris
