DO NOT REPLY [Bug 44613] New: "copy" task incorrectly says files are up to date, and does not do the copy

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44613

           Summary: "copy" task incorrectly says files are up to date, and
                    does not do the copy
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.7.0
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Core tasks
        AssignedTo: notifications@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: raould@gmail.com


maybe i am not understanding something about the copy task! but...

i think i've told it to copy e.g. file D1/A to D2/B and they are different
files and yet it says nothing needs to be done. this happens in 1.6.4, and so i
downloaded 1.7.0 and used that and it does the same thing.

[paths and file names changed since this is in the context of a build for a
proprietary system.]

deploy:
     [copy] /Users/foo/Documents/workspace/bar/build/baz/foo.xml omitted as
/Applications/Srv/baz/foo.xml is up to date.

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 0 seconds

gomachine:~/Documents/workspace/bar go$ ls -l
/Users/foo/Documents/workspace/bar/build/baz/foo.xml
-rw-r--r--   1 go  go  12756 Mar 16 14:00
/Users/foo/Documents/workspace/bar/build/baz/foo.xml

gomachine:~/Documents/workspace/bar go$ ls -l /Applications/Srv/baz/foo.xml
-rw-r--r--   1 go  go  12925 Mar 16 16:09 /Applications/Srv/baz/foo.xml

--- Comment #1 from Peter Reilly <pe...@apache.org>  2008-03-22 07:42:30 PST ---
copy just uses the date of the files to find out which are out-of-date, not the
contents.

You have to be carefull that the to and from directories are form the same
time period. For example. it is possible to untar files into the future...


Marking this as INVALID,
