No, but they use the very same behaviour as all other wrapper scripts for our packages, due to the use of a common function library. Selecting a JVM, adding java flags and application options are possible via a pref file in every case, using same option names in each case (which can not be ANT_something, obviously). However, this function library lacks documentation currently, and original documentation should either be modified, or at least some warning should be set somewhere. > Many users will not be aware of the fact that your scripts are not the > same scripts that the manual is talking about. > > > and future adaptations (splitted optional tasks to make dependencies > > less drastic, automatic loading of dependend classes) > > I'd urge you to do this together with ant-dev.
