ImportAnt Description

Free and open source library for the Apache Ant build tool Ant is a build tool, similar in goal to Make. It is based on the Java platform, so it's independent of the underlying operating system. A typical Ant project has a set of Java classes and a build file (by default called, build.xml). Ant has a task set that can perform actions such as: file management (create, copy, delete), java tools (java compiler, java virtual machine), database operations, source code management (cvs), etc. Each Ant build file defines a set of targets for a project that perform tasks and are parametrized by properties. For the same project type, the build files are mostly identic. ImportAnt is a set of reusable Apache Ant targets. The goal of ImportAnt is to standardize multiple project build files and avoid excessive redundancy. ImportAnt was started in 2004 as a helper library for a Distributed Systems college course, whose project was developed for a +300 student group. These student projects have several types of applications: libraries, console based, web applications and web services.Note: ImportAnt is cross-platform and it works on Mac OS X, Windows and Linux.
