compiling of dependency files

Hi all,

I have to compile 5 java files of my project. When I use the "javac" task, it 
also copiles all the dependency java files (which in this situation I do not 
know). So eventually 50 java files are compiled.
Java files to compile (say "ACTUAL") = 5
Depency Java files (say "DEPENDANT") = 45

Next time when I run ant again, if one of the "ACTUAL" java files is changed, 
ant picks it up recompiles it. But if one of the "DEPENDANT" files get changed, 
ant does not recompile anything. Can this feature be incorporated into ant.

Thanks
Saurav Biswas
