It's not *free* software either. There's not much you can do with Ant that can't be done with Make (given a little thought). Ant is also very Java centric, Classpath has a lot of C (and C++ if we include the GCJ stuff). Make is perfect for those languages. Brian, would you like to check out the Paperclips and Classpathx make files? They use the the @filelist convieniance to facilitate better make control over java projects.
