No, Nant and Ant are two totally separate tools. Nant I believe is based upon .NET and not Java (which makes sense since it is for .NET applications). However, Nant and Ant do share many of the similar task types and a very similar build.xml file structure. You define project, run "Target

Why not have all the NANT task activities in a separate build file, and simply use task in ANT to launch the NANT process ? There is some evidence in Google (http://www.google.co.in/search?q=nantcall) of building a task to facilitate this. I am not sure how far that effort got to. -Prashant On

Hello all. I have a build file with a set of patternsets that are declared in alphabetical order. There are some references between then (eg: A references B, but A is declared first). Because of these dependencies and their order, I'm getting warning messages from ant, things like: Overriding
