RE: uptodate and more general dependencies

[Marvin Greenberg]

I'd guess that it doesn't really matter, since if you test Fred.java against Fred.class, and it is up to date, then Fred$Inner.class is up to date as well.  So javac is fine.   The problem with IDL and some related kinds of things is that if I don't necessarily know the name of the generated files from the name of the source file.  So if I want a general rule, I need to have the target defined in terms of the directory where I know the files will be generated.  -----Original Message----- From: Jason Rosenberg [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 28, 2000 6:41 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: uptodate and more general dependencies An even more basic case of the one to many mapping is the case of a .java file which has local private classes declared.  This will produce multiple .class files.   Does the current <javac> task handle that properly?
