Not what you were asking for - but:

Use cpptask from the ant-contrib project - this handles all the logic of =

compiling C and CPP, and also has some plugins for fortran. If handles al=
l=20
the dependancy analysis for the Code and if your using a standard compile=
r=20
gcc, msvc it's all done for you.... all you have to do is configure it ;-=
