does ant have any extra interfaces, which ide vendors could use to integrate e.g setting the ant out redirection, query the ant api to get the list of targets etc. In case no, I assume that each IDE vendor must be writing their own xml parser to get these details etc.
As the principal author of the Ant integration in NetBeans I can tell you that it parses the XML file (and imported files) without using any Ant code: http://hg.netbeans.org/main-silver/raw-file/tip/o.apache.tools.ant.module/src/org/apache/tools/ant/module/api/support/TargetLister.java (Calling into Ant code merely for browsing would be pose security and reliability issues.) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@ant.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@ant.apache.org
