System and method for efficiently analyzing and building interdependent resources in a software project

摘要

A dynamic dependency representation 402 may be iteratively constructed and maintained as resources are changed, including resources that are automatically generated. A type differencing component 404 can be employed to more accurately identify when dependent resources should be analyzed or built. And an ordered task set 406 can be used to order the scheduled analysis or build tasks such that duplicate work is reduced or avoided.
