Hello Blair,
you may invoke ant from Maven, use this in your plugin section (you
might use maven.compile.classpath as well):
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.7</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>integration-test</phase>
<configuration>
<tasks>
<property name="maven.test.classpath"
refid="maven.test.classpath" />
<java failonerror="true" fork="true"
classpath="${maven.test.classpath}"
classname="YOUR_MAIN_CLASS">
<arg
value="COMMAND_LINE_ARGS" />
</java>
</tasks>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>run</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
Regards
Mirko
