There's stuff underway in ivy to generate pom files from ivy descriptors; it could be the precursor to ant based release deployment. For those of us whose projects live mostly in the Ant space, not having to drop to Maven would only be a good thing. After all, if I can use maven for releases, why not use it from the ground up? Nb, we have used maven1 in the past to create some of the site docs for smartfrog, like the change log. We also use forrest. -steve - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I don't share this desire but won't stand in your way. If you want to do that you'll probably have some very good reasons. Like Peter I'd rather prefer to go back to a single jar, though. Also I don't really want to restructure our source tree just because of some tools weaknesses. > This would not prevent us from keeping our build system with > build.bat/build.sh bootstrap.bat/bootstrap.sh and build.xml Keeping booststrap.sh/.bat is a must. I - and I guess others as well - want to be able to build Ant with /bin/sh and a JDK, nothing else.

Re: RE: Branch
Hi, what I really have in mind is to setup ant's source tree so that you can build ant with maven with very simple POMs, which means one source tree per output jar file. This would not prevent us from keeping our build system with build.bat/build.sh bootstrap.bat/bootstrap.sh and build.xml but would allow to setup parallel builds using maven which would work fine. In the long run, if maven becomes better at solving some issues like the release process (including the so called staged release process) we could build, stage and release ant using maven. We can already build ant's jars using maven, but our POMs are convoluted.

Why? Splitting the source tree by moving things to antlibs is fine, but why split the source tree of pieces that we consider part of the core of Ant?

For Ant 1.8, I have in mind some refactoring, like maybe splitting the source tree per jar. I would prefer to remove the large number of jars. The original reason for the split was to help people with classloading issues. The idea being that one could move the for example ant-junit.jar file out of $ANT_HOME/lib, and do a taskdef with this file and its needed third party files. This has not worked out in practice. The better way is that done by jesse for the junit task - using a split loader. I think that we can do this for most of the tasks that depend on third party jars. - I am near ready to commit the changes needed for

Re: Branch
Hello, I also would prefer to wait a bit to create the ANT_17_BRANCH. For Ant 1.8, I have in mind some refactoring, like maybe splitting the source tree per jar. Documentation could also be split by theme such as property tasks, resource based tasks, SCM tasks rather than the current distinction core/optional which is not so nice. If such refactoring happens, merging changes between two source trees which look different is a pain.
