uptodate question
Hi!
I use <uptodate> tag to compare timestamps of sql files in two direcories
<target name="checkUptodate">
<property name="src" location="../backup/db"/>
<property name="target" location="db"/>
<uptodate property="checkUptodate.dbUptodate">
<srcfiles dir="${src}" includes="*.sql" />
<mapper type="glob" from="*.sql" to="${target}/*.sql"/>
</uptodate>
<echo message="checkUptodate.dbUptodate result: ${checkUptodate.dbUptodate}" />
</target>
${checkUptodate.dbUptodate} is true is sql files in target directory are more recent OR HAVE THE SAME timestamp as those in source directory.
Ant documentation says that: "By default, the value of the property is set to true if the timestamp of the target file(s) is more recent than the timestamp of the corresponding source file(s)."
Can I have <uptodate> tag returning "false" is timestamps are equal?
I use Ant 1.6.1 on Linux RedHat 8.0, J2SDK 1.4.0_01
Thanks in advance, Andrey Grishin.

Audrey:
Is it possible that you are seeing the modified times in seconds only?
Could it be that the milliseconds might still be more recent on the .sql
files?
Thanks
Mani

Using filtersets in Copy. Controlling timestamp
Posted by Pawanraj Sadhwani <pa...@elitecore.com>.
Hi all,
I am merging 2 files in ant, using a filterset.
The resultant file is created with current time-date as timestamp..
I want to set the timestamp of the new created file as the latest timestamp
between the two files merged i.e if file1 is new, use that timestamp, if
file2 is new use its timestamp
How do i do this?
Pawan

Hi
Try this:
<uptodate property="checkUptodate.dbUptodate">
<srcfiles dir="${src}" includes="*.sql" />
<mapper type="glob" from="*.sql" to="${target}/*.sql"/>
</uptodate>
<property name="checkUptodate.dbUptodate" value="false"/>
If some property was set to some value then it can not be changed after
that.
So if "uptodate" task set the property, then "property" task will not change
it.
If uptodate task didn't set the property, then "property" task will set it.
But it will make this property useless in the target "if" or "unless"
attributes cause they check if property is set (to any value, "false"
included).

For <outofdate> this would a documention defect.
outofdate attempts to mimic make's idea of outofdateness.

Andrey:
You are right. If the timestamps are equal then it is set to true. I
think it should be set to false. I tried the <outofdate> task from
Ant-contrib and that behaves the same way too. Is it a documentation
defect or a design defect?
