What I would recommend doing to help Ant users is to create a utility that can be invoked from an Ant Task, programmatically, or from the command line which downloads transitive dependencies from a Maven repository. As an implementation strategy, the first place I would look at is just wrapping Maven (or Wagon, the part that actually does the downloading). I would also keep in mind that reusing Maven will avoid the trouble of having to write code that parses and understands Maven POMs. I would also look to see what can be shared with the Maven War plugin we currently have to avoid duplicated effort and code.
I've not used it but there is an extension for Maven that supports this: http://maven.apache.org/ant-tasks.html YMMV -- Jeremy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
