Not sure what you mean by they no longer support Ant.
Do you mean they are now built with Maven instead of Ant?
I'm not aware of anything Java in AOO itself that is being built with
Maven.
Only Ant or Make.
That also goes for other things like the NetBeans plugins for Addons,
Addins, client apps, etc.
There are thousands of lines of Ant in those.
Also the automated test suites are Ant built.
I tend to use Gradle in the AOO extension templates (replaces NetBeans)
due to it's excellent support for including Ant tasks and I prefer the
Groovy DSL to XML build files.
And I was able to reuse those thousands of lines of Ant instead of
porting it to Maven.
That being said most things could probably be ported to Maven (or
Gradle) if we decided to.
Best regards,
Carl
