Slightly off-topic, but I wonder if anyone can answer a quick Ant
question? Most tasks within Ant are clever and "know" which are the
output file(s) and which the input(s) so it knows whether the outputs
are out of date and need to be rebuilt. However, I have a few external
scripts and want to explicitly say "execute this task (or this target)
only if file x is older than file y or if file x is missing", just like
an old-fashioned makefile. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious but I
can't immediately work out how to do this from the Ant manual.
Check following Ant tasks in manual:
antcall
available
condition
dependset
exec
