Newbie build best practices question: I am trying to pattern our build process based on suggestions made in "Ant in Anger", and a few other sources.
It seems like common practice to use the "depends" attribute of a target to execute subordinate targets. What is the benefit of this over using nested "antcall" tasks in a target. Arbitrary example: <target name="all" depends="init,clean,build,deploy"/> Wouldn't it make sense, since these tasks are all part of "all" rather than prerequisites of "all", to include them as antcall tasks? Since I'm new to using ant, I might just not understand the important differences between depends and antcall. All advice welcome!
