Description
Apache Ant serves as a Java library and a command-line utility designed to execute processes outlined in build files, where targets and extension points are interdependent. Primarily, Ant is utilized for building Java applications, providing various built-in tasks that facilitate compiling, assembling, testing, and running these applications. Additionally, Ant proves to be effective in constructing non-Java applications, such as those written in C or C++. Beyond its specific language applications, Ant can manage any process that can be articulated in terms of tasks and targets, showcasing its versatility. Being developed in Java, Ant allows users to create custom "antlibs" that include tailored tasks and types while also offering a plethora of existing commercial and open-source "antlibs." This flexibility means that Ant does not enforce any specific coding standards or directory structures, making it adaptable for diverse Java projects that choose to implement it as their build system. Consequently, the adaptability and extensive features of Ant make it a preferred choice for developers across various programming environments.
