Description rsivan 2004-11-19 14:46:55 UTC 
It is very easy to add a depend target that 
invokes the Ant 'depend' task. Without it, if 
java class A depends on java class B, and B.java 
is modified, A.java does not get re-compiled 
by 'build main project'.
The following lines, added to build.xml, easily 
take care of this problem.
I suggest they should be part of build-impl.xml:
    <target name="-pre-compile" depends="class-
depend"/>

    <target name="class-depend" 
        description="Calculate class 
dependencies.">
        <depend srcdir="${src.dir}" 
destdir="${build.classes.dir}" cache="cachedir" 
dump="true"/>
    </target>

Might be an option to include it or not in j2seproject.

<depend> is one possibility, JavaMake is another. Not yet investigated
in detail.

This issue was solved long time ago. Because nobody has reopened it neither
added comments, we are verifying/closing it now. 
If you are still able to reproduce the problem, please reopen. 

Thanks in advance.
