[xsl] Removing dead targets from Ant build files

2007-12-21 00:46:08

Does anyone out there have a stylesheet that parses and trims dead targets from 
ant build files?

I started writing a stylesheet to do this but it got very convoluted and never 
acheived what I wanted so I gave up.
Currently we use Saxon 6.53 (becuase of DocBook).
I am also convinced that other people must also have large unwieldy ant files 
that over time have collected a bunch of dead targets (ones that do not appear 
in depends="" lists and do not have a description attribute).

Thanks for any ideas, hints, or stylesheets. There is, of course, the related 
issue of chunking these build files by following dependancies from distinct 
targets to build "feature" related build files, that are smaller and more 
manageable.
