Package org.apache.tools.ant.types.selectors

## Class DependSelector

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.tools.ant.ProjectComponent
  - - org.apache.tools.ant.types.DataType
    - - org.apache.tools.ant.types.selectors.BaseSelector
      - - org.apache.tools.ant.types.selectors.MappingSelector
        - - org.apache.tools.ant.types.selectors.DependSelector

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    `java.lang.Cloneable`, `ResourceSelector`, `FileSelector`

      public class DependSelector
      extends MappingSelector

  Selector that filters files based on whether they are newer than a matching file in another directory tree. It can contain a mapper element, so isn't available as an ExtendSelector (since those parameters can't hold other elements).
  Since:
    1.5
