I don't really care to make the comparison. I like the way my build files look in XML. I admit, my opinion is very tainted by my habit of automating things with Ant. I do a lot of automation with Ant that has nothing to do with compiling java source code. It works well for me, and I like it. Your original post asked the question "What do you think about the XML format used for writing Ant scripts?". I have given my biased and tainted opinion. It is what it is. -Rob Anderson --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
