Problems matching last modified for files

[Endre Meckelborg Rognerud]

Hello!

I'm trying to write a deploy goal for some config files, but I don't 
understand how I can match the lastModified date to see if I need to 
copy a file or not. This runs well, but the body of the if tag is never 
reached even if it should.

Alternative 1:

<j:if test="${file.lastModified() gt newfile.lastModified()}">
    <echo message="## I'M HERE!! ##"/>
</j:if>
Alternative 2:

<j:set var="olddate" value="${file.lastModified()}"/>
<j:set var="newdate" value="${newfile.lastModified()}"/>
<j:if test="${olddate gt newdate}">
    <echo message="## I'M HERE!! ##"/>
</j:if>
None of these works. Hope someone can give me a hint of what I have to 
do to make the test work...

Thanks in advance :)
