Description:

Apache Ant is a Java library and command-line tool whose mission is to drive processes described in build files as targets and extension points dependent upon each other. The main known usage of Ant is the build of Java applications. Ant supplies a number of built-in tasks allowing to compile, assemble, test and run Java applications. Ant can also be used effectively to build non Java applications, for instance C or C++ applications. More generally, Ant can be used to pilot any type of process which can be described in terms of targets and tasks. Ant is written in Java. Users of Ant can develop their own "antlibs" containing Ant tasks and types, and are offered a large number of ready-made commercial or open-source "antlibs". Ant is extremely flexible and does not impose coding conventions or directory layouts to the Java projects which adopt it as a build tool. Software development projects looking for a solution combining build tool and dependency management can use Ant in combination with Apache Ivy. The Apache Ant project is part of the Apache Software Foundation. Apache Ant 1.9.15 and 1.10.8 May 13, 2020 - Apache Ant 1.9.15 and 1.10.8 Released Apache Ant 1.9.15 and 1.10.8 are now available for download as source or binary from https://ant.apache.org/bindownload.cgi. The Apache Ant team currently maintains two lines of development. The 1.9.x releases require Java5 at runtime and 1.10.x requires Java8 at runtime. Both lines are based off of Ant 1.9.7 and the 1.9.x releases are mostly bug fix releases while additional new features are developed for 1.10.x. We recommend using 1.10.x unless you are required to use versions of Java prior to Java8 during the build process. Ant 1.10.8 contains a superset of 1.9.15 - with the exception of a few tasks and features that no longer work with Java8 anyway (like the apt task). Both releases address a insecure temporary file vulnerability vulnerability, see the security report for details. Apache AntUnit 1.4 Jun 26, 2018 - Apache AntUnit 1.4 Released Apache AntUnit 1.4 is now available for download as binary or source release. This release fixes a few race-conditions in LogCapturer and the br-template inside the XSLT stylesheet used for creating the reports. EasyAnt retired Dec 13, 2016 - EasyAnt retired The Ant PMC voted to archive the EasyAnt subproject and all its modules. This means that all its resources are removed or made read only and no further development will be done. It also means that, if a community grows, the subproject could reactivated. Apache Ivy 2.4.0 December 26, 2014 - Apache Ivy 2.4.0 Released Apache Ivy 2.4.0 is now available for download as source or binary (with and without dependencies) from https://ant.apache.org/ivy/download.cgi. Key features of the 2.4.0 release are some new Ant tasks improved OSGI support a Bintray resolver numerous bug fixes as documented in Jira and in the release notes For more information see the Ivy home page. Apache IvyDE 2.2.0 November 22, 2013 - Apache IvyDE 2.2.0 Released The Apache IvyDE project is pleased to announce its 2.2.0 release. The Apache IvyDE Eclipse plugin integrates Apache Ivy's dependency management into Eclipse. It lets you manage your dependencies declared in an ivy.xml in your Java Eclipse projects, or any other kind of project which needs dependency management. Apache IvyDE will contribute to the classpath of your Java project or you can make it retrieve your dependencies directly into your project. Last but not least Apache IvyDE offer editors of ivy.xml and ivysettings.xml files with completion. Get some preview here: https://ant.apache.org/ivy/ivyde/screenshots.html Major changes in this release The API of IvyDE has been stabilized so that third party plugins can rely on it, while still not complete, and still not advertised as stable in Ivy, support of OSGi has been added, javadoc and source attachement can be edited now one by one, improved stability of the resolve process, improved logging for easier debugging. Compatibility This release is expected to work with every version of Ivy 2.1 or superior. The OSGi features require Ivy 2.3.0 or superior though. This release is considered as stable. The beta of 2.2.0 has been out for a (too) long time.
