Apache Ant™

Apache Ant is a Java library and command-line tool whose mission is to drive processes described in build files as targets and extension points dependent upon each other. The main known usage of Ant is the build of Java applications. Ant supplies a number of built-in tasks allowing to compile, assemble, test and run Java applications. Ant can also be used effectively to build non Java applications, for instance C or C++ applications. More generally, Ant can be used to pilot any type of process which can be described in terms of targets and tasks.

Ant is written in Java. Users of Ant can develop their own 'antlibs' containing Ant tasks and types, and are offered a large number of ready-made commercial or open-source 'antlibs'.

Ant is extremely flexible and does not impose coding conventions or directory layouts to the Java projects which adopt it as a build tool.

Software development projects looking for a solution combining build tool and dependency management can use Ant in combination with Apache Ivy.

The Apache Ant project is part of the Apache Software Foundation.

Apache Ant 1.9.16 and 1.10.11

July 13, 2021 - Apache Ant 1.9.16 and 1.10.11 Released

Apache Ant 1.9.16 and 1.10.11 are now available for download as source or binary from https://ant.apache.org/bindownload.cgi.

The Apache Ant team currently maintains two lines of development. The 1.9.x releases require Java5 at runtime and 1.10.x requires Java8 at runtime. Both lines are based off of Ant 1.9.7 and the 1.9.x releases are mostly bug fix releases while additional new features are developed for 1.10.x. We recommend using 1.10.x unless you are required to use versions of Java prior to Java8 during the build process.

Ant 1.10.11 contains a superset of 1.9.16 - with the exception of a few tasks and features that no longer work with Java8 anyway (like the apt task).

Both releases address potential denial of service vulnerabilities, see the security report for details.

Apache IvyDE 2.2.0

November 22, 2013 - Apache IvyDE 2.2.0 Released

The Apache IvyDE project is pleased to announce its 2.2.0 release.

The Apache IvyDE Eclipse plugin integrates Apache Ivy's dependency management into Eclipse. It lets you manage your dependencies declared in an ivy.xml in your Java Eclipse projects, or any other kind of project which needs dependency management. Apache IvyDE will contribute to the classpath of your Java project or you can make it retrieve your dependencies directly into your project. Last but not least Apache IvyDE offer editors of ivy.xml and ivysettings.xml files with completion. Get some preview here: https://ant.apache.org/ivy/ivyde/screenshots.html

Major changes in this release

The API of IvyDE has been stabilized so that third party plugins can rely on it,
while still not complete, and still not advertised as stable in Ivy, support of OSGi has been added,
javadoc and source attachement can be edited now one by one,
improved stability of the resolve process,
improved logging for easier debugging.

Compatibility

This release is expected to work with every version of Ivy 2.1 or superior. The OSGi features require Ivy 2.3.0 or superior though.

This release is considered as stable. The beta of 2.2.0 has been out for a (too) long time.
