-<h2><a name="uptodate">Uptodate</a></h2>
-<h3>Description</h3>
-<p>Sets a property if a target file or set of target files is more up-to-date
-than a source file or set of source files. A single source file is specified
-using the <code>srcfile</code> attribute. A set of source files is specified
-using the nested <code>&lt;srcfiles&gt;</code>
-elements. These are <a href="../Types/fileset.html">FileSet</a>s,
-whereas multiple target files are specified using a nested
-<a href="../Types/mapper.html"><code>&lt;mapper&gt;</code></a> element.</p>
-<p>By default, the value of the property is set to <code>true</code> if
-the timestamp of the source file(s) is not more recent than the timestamp of
-the corresponding target file(s). You can set the value to something other
-than the default by specifying the <code>value</code> attribute.</p>
-<p>If a <code>&lt;srcfiles&gt;</code> element is used, without also specifying
-a <code>&lt;mapper&gt;</code> element, the default behavior is to use a
-<a href="../Types/mapper.html#merge-mapper">merge mapper</a>, with the
-<code>to</code> attribute set to the value of the
-<code>targetfile</code> attribute.</p>
-<p>Normally, this task is used to set properties that are useful to avoid
-target execution depending on the relative age of the specified files.</p>

-<h3>Parameters specified as nested elements</h3>
-<h4><a name="srcfiles">srcfiles</a></h4>
-<p>The nested <code>&lt;srcfiles&gt;</code> element is a
-<a href="../Types/fileset.html">fileset</a> and allows you to
-specify a set of files to check against the target file(s).</p>
-
-<p><strong>Note:</strong> You can specify either the <code>srcfile</code>
-attribute or nested <code>&lt;srcfiles&gt;</code> elements, but not both.
-
-<p>Note that the task will completely ignore any directories that seem
- to be matched by the srcfiles fileset, it will only consider normal
- files. If you need logic that applies to directories as well, use a
- nested srcresource and a dirset (for example).</p>
-
-<h4><a name="srcresources">srcresources</a></h4>
-<p>The nested <code>&lt;srcresources&gt;</code> element is a <a
-href="../Types/resources.html#union">union</a> and allows you to
-specify a collection of resources to check against the target file(s).
-<em>Since Apache Ant 1.7</em></p>
-
-<h4><a name="mapper">mapper</a></h4>
-<p>The nested <code>&lt;mapper&gt;</code> element allows you to specify
-a set of target files to check for being up-to-date with respect to a
-set of source files.</p>
- <p>
- The mapper "to" attribute is relative to the target file, or to
- the "dir" attribute of the nested srcfiles element.
- </p>
- <p>
- <em>Since Ant 1.6.3</em>,
- one can use a filenamemapper type in place of the mapper element.
- </p>
-<h3>Examples</h3>
-<pre> &lt;uptodate property=&quot;xmlBuild.notRequired&quot; targetfile=&quot;${deploy}\xmlClasses.jar&quot; &gt;
- &lt;srcfiles dir= &quot;${src}/xml&quot; includes=&quot;**/*.dtd&quot;/&gt;
- &lt;/uptodate&gt;</pre>
-<p>sets the property <code>xmlBuild.notRequired</code> to <code>true</code>
-if the <code>${deploy}/xmlClasses.jar</code> file is more up-to-date than
-any of the DTD files in the <code>${src}/xml</code> directory.</p>
-<p>This can be written as:</p>
-<pre> &lt;uptodate property=&quot;xmlBuild.notRequired&quot;&gt;
- &lt;srcfiles dir= &quot;${src}/xml&quot; includes=&quot;**/*.dtd&quot;/&gt;
- &lt;mapper type=&quot;merge&quot; to=&quot;${deploy}\xmlClasses.jar&quot;/&gt;
- &lt;/uptodate&gt;</pre>
-as well.
-
-The <code>xmlBuild.notRequired</code> property can then be used in a
-<code>&lt;target&gt;</code> tag's <code>unless</code> attribute to
-conditionally run that target. For example, running the following target:</p>
-<pre>
-&lt;target name=&quot;xmlBuild&quot; depends=&quot;chkXmlBuild&quot; unless=&quot;xmlBuild.notRequired&quot;&gt;
- ...
-&lt;/target&gt;
-</pre>
-will first run the <code>chkXmlBuild</code> target, which contains
-the <code>&lt;uptodate&gt;</code> task that determines whether
-<code>xmlBuild.notRequired</code> gets set. The property named in
-the <code>unless</code> attribute is then checked for being set/not set.
-If it did get set (ie., the jar file is up-to-date),
-then the <code>xmlBuild</code> target won't be run.
-</p>
-
-<p> The following example shows a single source file being checked
-against a single target file:</p>
-<pre> &lt;uptodate property=&quot;isUpToDate&quot;
- srcfile=&quot;/usr/local/bin/testit&quot;
- targetfile=&quot;${build}/.flagfile&quot;/&gt;
-</pre>
-<p>sets the property <code>isUpToDate</code> to <code>true</code>
-if <code>/usr/local/bin/testit</code> is not newer than
-<code>${build}/.flagfile</code>.</p>
-</p>
- <p>
- The following shows usage of a relative mapper.
- </p>
- <pre>
- &lt;uptodate property="checkUptodate.uptodate"&gt;
- &lt;srcfiles dir="src" includes="*"/&gt;
- &lt;mapper type="merge" to="../dest/output.done"/&gt;
- &lt;/uptodate&gt;
- &lt;echo message="checkUptodate result: ${checkUptodate.uptodate}"/&gt;
- </pre>
- <p>
- The previous example can be a bit confusing, so it may be better to
- use absolute paths:
- </p>
- <pre>
- &lt;property name="dest.dir" location="dest"/&gt;
- &lt;uptodate property="checkUptodate.uptodate"&gt;
- &lt;srcfiles dir="src" includes="*"/&gt;
- &lt;mapper type="merge" to="${dest.dir}/output.done"/&gt;
- &lt;/uptodate&gt;
- </pre>
