Ant predates Commons Compress by several years. Actually Ant's core doesn't have any dependencies at all, this has always been the case. Initially the XML parser had to be provided before JAXP became part of the standard class library. This is an important goal of Ant. We can bootstrap Ant with just a JDK and nothing else. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
