  272. Ant in Action
  273. </h4>
  274. <p>Published April/May 2007, and covering Ant 1.7.</p>
  275. <p>This is a major rewrite of the first edition; still 600 pages long.
  276. </p>
  277. <p>
  278. This book moves up from Ant1.5 to Java1.5 and 1.7, with a near-complete
  279. rewrite of the applied-ant section, covering new topics such as
  280. antlibs, repository management with Ivy, Xml Schema validation,
  281. EJB3.0/Java EE development and advanced deployment using SmartFrog.
  282. The ant coding section looks at AntUnit, antlib authoring and
  283. scripting languages, while the beginners chapters, the first third
  284. of the book, still shows developers how to build, test, package and
  285. redistribute a Java application.
  286. </p>
  287. <p>
  288. If you are one of the 20,000+ owners of the first edition, it is now
  289. obsolete. Sorry :)
