Surely there are many commercial build tools more similar than make. One springs to mind for me, and I'm not a build maven by any means.
Anthill Pro http://www.urbancode.com/projects/anthill/default.jsp Commercial means you pay for it. When people say favor something commercial, however, they don't really mean that they want to pay for it. They want many different things that they hope pay money will give them. Support is usually the most important of these. Maven is obviously supported. Somebody could sell support contracts for it, which would make it commercial. This could be offered with or without Maven hosting, which is another way Maven could be commercial. I am a strong proponent of java.net adding Maven to their services, but based on their responses, I can't see that happening. If someone were to host a Maven site for java.net projects, I would use it. -----Original Message----- From: STRAYER, JON (SBCSI) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 13, 2004 5:33 PM To: 'Maven Users List' Subject: RE: Commercial Maven Equivalents > I have been pushing the use of Maven in my company.

I'd ask the people asking for the comparison. Besides for some commercial versions of "make" I can't think of any commercial build tools. But that just may be due to my ignorance. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
