= Release dates = http://sourceforge.net/projects/ant-contrib/files/ antcontrib 1.0b3 => Thu Nov 02 2006 http://antelope.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList;jsessionid=BC467EDA2CE7413493FF7FD6AC8195F2 antelope 3.5.1 Tasks => Fri Jan 09 2009 seems like ant contrib development has stopped !? According to http://antelope.tigris.org/ = /* The Antelope Project also provides a set of additional tasks that provide functionality not found in the standard tasks distributed with Ant. Work is underway to merge the Antelope tasks with the AntContrib project. */ there's an intersection between both but the merge is not completed yet. = Differences = beside the tasks, Antelope provides a graphical user interface for running Ant and a jEdit plugin, see description on http://antelope.tigris.org/ = /* As a stand-alone application, Antelope provides the ability to create and edit Ant build files, the ability to run build file targets, and can trace target and task execution in a quasi-debug mode. Output from the build process can be captured to a file and/or to screen and performance statistics can be gathered to guide optimization efforts. */ = Problems = when using the latest antcontrib 1.0b3 the assert task did'nt work for me, whereas the assert of antcontrib 1.0b2 and the assert from Antelope are working = http://marc.info/?l=ant-user&m=118061703508041&w=2 http://marc.info/?l=ant-user&m=119451257231990&w=2 I would try both, many tasks are very similar, personally i prefer antelope, because antcontrib development remains static. btw.there's another great Ant addon you should take a look at AntXtras, see = http://jwaresoftware.org/wiki/home http://antxtras.sourceforge.net/ Regards, Gilbert --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
