JWare/AntXtras is a powerful extension Ant library as well as a collection of useful Ant components. The current active AntXtras projects include "AntXtras", "Log4Ant", and "Svn4Ant".

Features

  • Does a lot with little Ant scripting— yet fits in with standard Ant seamlessly
  • Variables (aka mutable properties) to match Ant’s read-only properties.
  • Recursive property reference expansion!
  • Function shortcuts (aka “funcuts”) to perform simple tasks with less XML script.
  • Enhanced execution and flow control for scripts– to the task level!
  • Overlays, nets, and bubbles to add fine grain control over fixture modifications.
  • Many new add-on conditions integrated with the standard Ant framework.
  • Capture task level console output to properties or log files– without loggers!
  • Execution rules antlib to create self-verifying and self-correcting scripts.
  • Expands Ant way beyond simple application building.
