Hi,

I am new to Ant, and I am probably doing something fundamentally wrong.
Here is my problem: I have setup my build.xml with a few dependent =
targets in a very straightforward way (all javac compiles).  when a =
compile error happens - I go and fix it, however ant will not re-compile =
it. Even if I don't fix it - I run ant second time and it will pass =
fine.  The only way I can make it re-compile the class is to blow away =
the whole classes directory. Even deleting all the classfiles for the =
target I am trying to re-compile does not do the trick. It seems once =
ant does a target once it even if it fails it still thinks it has been =
built succesfully and even deleting resulting classfiles is ignored by =
it.  What am I doing wrong?

thanks in advance for your help,
- Ilya

P.S. Below is a sample piece of my build.xml
