Utkarsh Srivastava commented on PIG-68:
---------------------------------------

Looks great. 
Wouldn't it be better to leave a symlink in ${basedir} called pig.jar so that 
it is easy to run. Plus existing scripts that assume that existence don't 
break. That would also need to be deleted on clean.

> Improving build.xml in many ways :)

> The build file can be improve in many ways:
> * add revision number to pig.jar name (like: pig-r1234.jar)
> * put pig.jar in the dist dir
> * "clean" target leave a "depend" folder undeleted
> * use a regexp to delete files in "org\apache\pig\impl\logicalLayer\parser" 
> folder instead of listing all files one by one that you want to delete
> * put all artifacts (classes, jar, etc...) in the dist folder so that when 
> doing clean you just need to specify dist
> * provide a description for targets (for "ant -projecthelp" command)
> * use spaces or tabs but not both (spaces are better for patch and diff in my 
> opinion)
