It is probably because ext is part of your package structure.

Drop "/ext" from the src, and add it as an includes filter.
includes="ext/**"

Charles,
I have changed the javac task to use nested src elements. But the problem still
persists. It compiles all the java files under ${wt_home}/src/ext every time even
though no file has been changed.
Still puzzled..
Thanks for your help,
Satish

Since you have more than one source dir, don't use the javac attribute but use nested
src elements:
<javac
destdir="${builddir}"
debug="on"
failonerror="true">
<classpath refid="compile.codebase.class.path"/>
<src path="${wt_home}/src/ext"/>
<src path="${wt_home}/wtSafeArea/siteMod/src"/>
</javac>
Most of this stuff is discussed in the Ant manual. You may want to give it a look when
you are having trouble with a task.
