+ + Ant 2.0 Requirements + +
+
+

Ant has been in use for quite some time and has been used in ways never conceived when it + was originally written. While Ant 1.x has continued to sucessfully evolve and grow, there + are a number of limitations and inconsistencies that are now apparent and which need to + be addressed. +

+

+ As we continue to evolve and enhance Ant 1.x, it is now time to define what Ant 2.0 will + encompass. Ant 2.0 will be a major rearchitecting of Ant. It has a number of goals including: +

    +
  • Define the "contract" with build file writers to which Ant will be bound.
    • +
  • Define the "contract" between the Ant core and Task writers.
    • +
  • Make Ant more easily extendable by allowing additional tasks to be "dropped" in.
    • +
  • Allow Ant to function as a component to simplify integration with GUIs and IDEs.
    • +
  • Make Ant more regular and logical.
    • +
+ + It is expected that Ant 2.0 will break Ant 1.x based build files. The intention is to + make this the last time that will happen. +

+

+ To advance the definition of Ant, user requirements are now being accepted on the + Ant-Dev mailing list. Any requirement will be accepted for consideration. The + requirements are being collected into a document which is available + on-line. New features will be excepted + until March 21st, 2001. At that time, each requirement will be discussed + for inclusion in an Ant 2.0 requirement document. +

+

+ For your reference some of the goals which have shaped the development of Ant 1.x are + available here. These continue to be + relevant to Ant 2.0. +

+

+ If you want to shape the future of Ant, join the + Ant-Dev mailing list and contribute + your ideas. +
