For development lifecycle I would recommend writing your own EasyAnt-Plugin. You should then ask the two teams (IvyDE and Eclipse-Ant-PlugIn) for required extension points. If your adds are more generic you also could provide patches for these two plugins. > 2. Where I can find sources for both these. IvyDE is in the repo of Apache Ant http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ant/ivy/ivyde/trunk/ The Ant plugin is, as Jeffrey said, part of Eclipse itself (plugins org.eclipse.ant*, org.apache.ant is 'just' Ant itself - without docs). > I know this is the dev mailing list for IvyDE but, am not sure about Ant. Funny. d...@ant was created for the development of Ant and was widened for the development of Ivy + IvyDE after their joining ;) You have all the developers here at d...@ant: Ant, Ivy, IvyDE - and some Eclipse-Ant developers are also listening. > If this is not the correct place for ant, does someone know > where I should be writing for the Ant plugin?
