Title: Message Title

Stefan Drissen created an issue   Jenkins / JENKINS-61665 withAnt - automatically use correct shell Issue Type: Improvement Assignee: Francisco Fernández Components: ant-plugin, pipeline Created: 2020-03-24 13:32 Environment: Jenkins 2.226 Priority: Major Reporter: Stefan Drissen The declarative pipeline offers the withAnt build step. Unfortunately this only sets up the Ant environment and then uses a shell (bat / sh) to execute Ant within that environment. While the work-around as documented on https://plugins.jenkins.io/ant/ works: withAnt(installation: 'myinstall') { dir("scoring") { if (isUnix()) { sh "ant mytarget" } else { bat "ant mytarget" } } Needing to detect the operating system for a tool that works on all operating systems is plain clunky and immediately raises the difficulty bar when migrating from freestyle jobs. Freestyle jobs allow you to simply use Ant without you having to worry about which operating system is being used.
