The problem with "ant clean compile" is, that the "clean"-task would have
to be very sophisticated in our case since we have a quite big project
and I don't want to have to recompile about 180 EJBs in order to recompile
a few classes.

perhaps one could create a new task that - using at least the
"import"-Statements
to build something like a "compile-queue"? But as far as I see that's just a
SMOP.

Is there a switch in javac (or jikes) that can resolve this kind of problem?
I haven't found one?
