Description Martin Schulte 2003-01-26 01:55:43 UTC
The "bug" in the JDK mentioned in the URL causes Ant's touch to behave 
different from the UNIX touch-command. While it is probably not easy to
force ant to behave "well", it shouldn't be too difficult to give the user
a hint (message if setLastModified returns false) and to mention this in the
docu.

Thanks a lot for your helpful product,

Martin
