I think that we can probably do this... such that any Ant (greater than the supported version) would work... but it will require some effort to figure out a way to allow scripts to share data.
I think that using the <script> task could possibly help resolve many of the include issues. I am confident that we can transform the build system in subtle ways (ie. no major structure changes or anything like that) to get it working in most if not all Ant aware IDE's. I do however believe that we should move carefully on this, so we don't have to mess with this again in 6 months. --jason > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:jboss- > [EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Scott M Stark > Sent: Thursday, September 19, 2002 2:39 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [JBoss-dev] Build System... any ideas > > Anymove that restores that ability to run our build in Ant aware tools is > a good thing. > > xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Scott Stark > Chief Technology Officer > JBoss Group, LLC > xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Jason Dillon" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Wednesday, September 18, 2002 10:29 PM > Subject: RE: [JBoss-dev] Build System... any ideas > > > > I had looked into this, making a custom task, but dropped it... why...
