| hackdorte@20007 | 1 Apache Ant is a Java library and command-line tool whose mission is to drive |
| hackdorte@20007 | 2 processes described in build files as targets and extension points dependent |
| hackdorte@20007 | 3 upon each other. The main known usage of Ant is the build of Java |
| hackdorte@20007 | 4 applications. Ant supplies a number of built-in tasks allowing to compile, |
| hackdorte@20007 | 5 assemble, test and run Java applications. Ant can also be used effectively to |
| hackdorte@20007 | 6 build non Java applications, for instance C or C++ applications. More |
| hackdorte@20007 | 7 generally, Ant can be used to pilot any type of process which can be |
| hackdorte@20007 | 8 described in terms of targets and tasks. |
| hackdorte@20007 | 9 |
| hackdorte@20007 | 10 Ant is written in Java. Users of Ant can develop their own "antlibs" |
| hackdorte@20007 | 11 containing Ant tasks and types, and are offered a large number of ready-made |
| hackdorte@20007 | 12 commercial or open-source "antlibs". |
| hackdorte@20007 | 13 |
| hackdorte@20007 | 14 Ant is extremely flexible and does not impose coding conventions or directory |
| hackdorte@20007 | 15 layouts to the Java projects which adopt it as a build tool. |
| hackdorte@20007 | 16 |
| hackdorte@20007 | 17 Software development projects looking for a solution combining build tool and |
| hackdorte@20007 | 18 dependency management can use Ant in combination with Apache Ivy. |

| hackdorte@20007 | 20 The Apache Ant project is part of the Apache Software Foundation. |
