Hello, I found a solution :
<target name="pre_build">
<ivy:cachepath pathid="ivy.allconfs" conf="*" />
<pathconvert targetos="unix" property="classpath.converted"
refid="ivy.allconfs" />
<property file="${dist.dir}/.uptodate" />
<condition property="build.notRequired">
<and>
<equals arg1="${classpath.persisted}"
arg2="${classpath.converted}" />
<uptodate targetfile="${dist.dir}/.uptodate">
<srcfiles dir="${src.dir}"
includes="**/*" />
<srcfiles dir="${test.dir}"
includes="**/*" />
<srcfiles dir="${config.dir}"
includes="**/*" />
</uptodate>
</and>
</condition>
<condition property="_build.isBuildRequired" value="Build is
NOT required" else="Build is required">
<isset property="build.notRequired" />
</condition>
</target>
at the end of my build process :
<target name="post_build">
<echo
file="${dist.dir}/.uptodate">classpath.persisted=${classpath.converted}</echo>
<touch file="${dist.dir}/.uptodate" />
</target>
then i use the if/unless target attribute set to build.notRequired.
hope it would help someone else...

Subject: uptodate and ivy
Hello,
I am looking into making my build process a liitle bit smarter and avoid module
build if not necessary. I use the uptodate task. My issue is how to handle
dependency changes as I am not retrieving them, I am referencing dependency
using cachepath. Is someone has a solution to build only if a dependency
changed.
regards,
Hervé
