To avoid to re-invent the wheel, I have designed a light buildsystem 'EL4Ant' with modules, dependencies and execution target (for the company I work in and then open source). It is really easy to extend with your own targets thanks to plugins. I really think the code itself is easy to understand (easier than Maven) for a Ant user because everything is pure Java and Ant tasks. http://sourceforge.net/projects/el4ant/ It is usable (since january) but I'm aware many improvements are possible. -- Yves Martin --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
