The idea is that you generate the Ant build and include it in the delivery, so that a user can chose between Ant or Maven on its own. I just have no idea, how well the generated build works. The latter is also possible, but if you call Maven (core) with an Ant task, it does not really help. - Jörg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
