What do they propose? What type of projects are you going to build? Even though I am using ANT everywhere, other people successfully use VisualStudio to build their projects. Maybe your coworkers' ideas have merits.

Long time ago we tried to use Make to build our projects and soon we hit a command line length restriction. ANT handles most of the complexity while still allowing to run external commands.

Hi all,



I am working in a team of developers, where one developer is completely
against the use of ANT as a build script as he feels that xml should not
be used as a scripting tool.  I would like to create an environment
which does automated nightly builds, deployments and execution of tests
with reports.  This team members negativity is hampering commitment
towards this goal.



I was hoping there would be somebody who could direct me to a
resource(s) that will strengthen my case for the use of ANT, as I see it
as the perfect tool to achieve this goal and am under the impression
that it is the industry standard for non-proprietary java build tools.



Regards,

Andreas
