Here if a target is built and if the same target is used to build some other target, it compares the timestamp and will not build the dependent targets again. As I started working on ANT, I found it very useful and intersting. But in ANT, while building each target, it will try to build all the dependent targets that many times as it occurs in different targets. As a result it is increasing project\'s build time.Is there any task to ensure that the dependent targets once built will not  be built again ???? --=_9577be5cc56b8dd83925c5d6a3f82e1e--
