<subsection name="Ant: The Definitive Guide, 2nd edition">
<p>Published April 2005, and covers Ant release 1.6.1.</p>
<p>This is a complete rewrite of the first edition; this book is
now 290 pages and so covers Ant in more depth than its predecessor.
</p>
<p>It also mixes reference information (tables) with text explanation
on how to use the tasks. Contents includes JUnit, CVS, execution, basic
deployment, Web application development and XDoclet. There is also coverage
of XDoclet, and a chapter on how to extend Ant in Java.</p>
