Incremental or background compilation for Maven/Gradle projects

I wonder if there are plugins/approaches for background/incremental compilation on the fly for Java/Android projects based on Maven or Gradle. For example, analogous of triggered execution from SBT ~compile. Or if there any way to tell build system to recompile only changed files. Thanks.

Gradle doesn't currently offer incremental and/or continuous compilation for Java. Both features are planned though, and although I don't have a concrete timeline to share, chances are that they will be delivered rather soon.

PS: It can pay off to split up larger codebases into multiple compile tasks, source sets, or projects, so that up-to-date checks and parallel execution can kick in.
