How can i build latex, asy... with ANT

Hello,
 I want to use ant build latex code. <pdflatex demo.tex> the destination
file is demo.pdf, but ANT can not compare the time stamp between tex
and pdf, so ANT build pdf always.

How can I resolve it.

Timestamp comparison is something typically handled internally to a
given task.  If the task you want to use doesn't support this, try
