[jira] Commented: (BUILDR-333) buildr does not repackage when working with eclipse that compiles to target/classes

["Ittay Dror (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Ittay Dror commented on BUILDR-333:
-----------------------------------

another suggestion is that CompileTask#target should have all .class files as prerequisites

> Many java developers set the project's output in Eclipse to target/classes to save compilation time of BuildR.
> Say I change a file:
> * jar task depends on compile.target
> * compile.target depends on compile task
> * compile task's needed? method checks Base#needed? 
> * Base#needed? compares sources, classes and dependencies timestamps
>   ==> since eclipse compiled the source, Base#needed? returns fals
>   ==> nothing is done (jar is not repackaged)
> Suggestion: Jar task should compare jar and classes timestamp. if there are newer classes, it is needed to be executed
