Incremental Build Impementation...

[dheeraj tandon <dh...@gmail.com>]

Hi ,

I am working on implementing incremental build to reduce build time like
compiling only new and changed java souce code, copy only new and change jar
files/config files etc but I am facing following issue

- If some of the jars,config and other files deleted from source location
due to whatever they remain as it is in destination directory because I am
not deleting the destination dir because of incremental build....


Anybody have any clue how to get rid off this issue so that I can able to do
build incrementally ....

The normal way to deal with this is to accept that the dependency checks in
ant are not complete (in fact they are completely brain-dead) and do ant clean
very often. For example, using Continuous integration, always do a clean
target (which removes *ALL* build generated artifacts) before the main build.
