Matt, and all,

Yes, it is possible to define the order of compilation in the parent
directory. However, I would like to be able to go into directory A and type
"ant" and it will check and compile directory B if necessary.

How can I do that?

In my directory A, currently I have a compile-depend target. compile target
depends on compile-depend target. compile-depend target will check the
existence of certain jar files. If they do not exist, then it will do
<subant> ../B directory and start compiling. I am not convence that it is
the correct solution. May be using <depend> but how? Can anyone please give
me some advice? I am sure this is has been done by some of you many many
times.

Thanks

Barry
