auto dependency generation?
Is there a simple way to generate a dependency file for
inclusion into build.xml?
I have several .java files in a com.blah.blah package (in a
directory). One of the files is an Interface that one of the
other files uses. Ant chose to compile the non-Interface
file first, so it can't get the .class file for the Interface
file because it hasn't compiled it yet :-P

...which won't find things such as final fields, or other inlined
members of a class.
To be on the safe side, you need to parse the java sources. Two hints
for free tools:
1) jikes has an option to generate dependencies
2) <http://code.werken.com/werken.javad/ >

There's the <depend> task, but it works once the class files are all
compiled (since it uses them to determine the dependencies).

But won't the Java compiler go compile whatever it needs whenever it needs
it? Does the Interface source file live in some subdir down from the dir
specified in 'srcdir'?
