Time to clarify my remarks. I agree with all you said, and I met for J2EE deployment
purposes. Thanks for pointing out that we have apples and oranges here.

Hey,
While the Sun tools may be easier to use in the general case of deploying a
J2EE application, Ant is a *generic* and extendible build tool, that can be
used to perform from the simplest (copy, move, rename, delete files, compile,
execute) to the most advanced (deploying complete J2EE applications,
performing unit tests, translating source code to formatted HTML, checking
Javadoc comments for completeness, etc.) And all of that in a
platform-independant manner :)
So IMHO comparing deploytool with Ant is a bit odd.
