Stephan,
thank you for your response.

verbose helped me, so I have a better idea what is happening now.
I have roughly the following dependancy graph among tagets:
prepare -> platform-> util -> core -> all other targets
what I found happening is that changing/removing file in util,prepare and platform
targets gets noticed by Ant and it rebuilds respective files, also displaying "file
uptodate" for each file in that target's filelist
However it ignores any changes in core and all above tagets in the graph, and never
displays "file uptodate" for any of the files in the filelists for those targets. I
spent more 2 hours on this, and I cannot understand hat is going on - all tatgets are
straight javac tasks and all filelists are similar. I see no difference between
targets Ant handles correctly and ones it does not except for their place in
dependancy hierarchy.
I definetly ruled out file not being liste in filelists and timestamp version.
If you have any ideas for me to try, I'll really appreciate it
thanks for your time,
- Ilya
P.S. Below is relavant snipet from build.xml
<target name="compile.util" depends="prepare, platform.weblogic, platform.iplanet">
<javac srcdir="${src}"
destdir="${build.classesdir}"
classpath="${build.classpath}"
includesfile="./util.filelist"
memoryInitialSize="128M"
memoryMaximumSize="256M"/>
</target>
<target name="compile.core">
<javac srcdir="${src}"
destdir="${build.classesdir}"
classpath="${build.classpath}"
includesfile="./core.filelist"
memoryInitialSize="128M"
memoryMaximumSize="256M"/>
</target>
