Why don't you want to use a resource change listener? The alternative
would be to poll the project periodically and look for differences,
though this will likely be much worse in terms of performance, and
you'll end up polling when there have been no changes at all...

i am using a PRE_BUILD listener also.I have 6 build configuration for the
project.So each time whenever there is a PRE_BUILD event i am generating a
makefile.I know that creating a makefile each time is not a good
option.Thats
why i am looking for an API or some thing that can tell me , weather the
makefile for the active configuration is up to date or not.
Can't i do it like this, if the timestamp(modification) of makefile is
more than any other file,I can skip generating it again.

I am not sure how I can handle the same thing using listener for
POST_CHANGE or somehting, as i want to update the makefile only when the
project is built.

Any clue on how to check if a particular file, here makefile has timestamp
greater than any other files in the project.


Thanks
Padam
