It is compatible but, before using ant tags, you should add in your maven xml these lines:
<project default="whatevergoal..." * xmlns:ant="jelly:ant"* xmlns:license="license" xmlns:maven="jelly:maven">
And then, if you want to call ant on a file, you would do it like this:
<ant:ant antfile="build.xml" target="properties" />
Hope it helps Eric.

I have a project which is almost cloned from Turbine 2.2.1 TDK sample. I tried to convert the build from ant to maven. The quickest way as I perceived is, besides creating a project.xml, to call build.xml from maven.xml as follows:
<project default="run-ant">
<goal name="run-ant">
<ant antfile="build.xml" target="init"/>
</goal>
</project>
When I run "ant init" it works, but when I run maven it gives following error:
BUILD FAILED

Apparently there is a path mis-config in maven. But I don't understand why the error only happens in maven, not in ant. Isn't maven supposed to be compatible with ant?
