[Springframework-developer] ant.bat in the root of the project

[Colin S. <col...@ex...>]

Hi Juergen,

Did you intend to add ant.bat to the root of the project? It interferes 
with whatever ant version a user may have on their system.

It is completely normal and expected (by just about every project out 
there) that people have ant installed on their systems, so I've never 
understood the practice of adding batch files / shell scripts to 
projects to start ant with Ditto for including ant libs in the project 
itself; that's a lot of baggage to carry around just in case somebody 
doesn't have ant handy...

If you do want the file there, perhaps it could be named build.bat?

What about the ant libs in the lib dir, is there really any need to have 
them?

Regards,
Colin
