That's not what I want, because if I have:
<target ...>
<echo massage="Compiling..."/>
<javac..../>
<echo message="Compilation finished"/>
</target>
then the echo messages are going to get spit out even if the <javac> task decides that
it has nothing to do (all the .class files are up-to-date).
Thanks though.

No echo can not be put inside a task, as it's a task on it's own. But you
can put it right before the task :)
...
<echo massage="Compiling..."/>
<javac..../>
<echo message="Compilation finished"/>
Does that help?
