[ANN] Ant 1.7.0 Released

Hi,

We have the pleasure to announce the release of Apache Ant 1.7.0.

Ant 1.7 introduces a resource framework. Some of the core ant tasks  
such as <copy/> are now able to process not only file system  
resources but also zip entries, tar entries, paths, ... Resource  
collections group resources, and can be further combined with  
operators such as union and intersection. This can be extended by  
custom resources and custom tasks using resources.

Ant 1.7 starts outsourcing of optional tasks to Antlibs. The .NET  
antlib replaces the .NET optional tasks which ship in Ant. Support  
for the version control system Subversion is also provided as an antlib.

Ant 1.7 fixes also a large number of bugs.

Ant 1.7 has some initial support for Java6 features.

The Apache Ant Team

Hi Steve,

actually, the org.apache.ant artifacts seem not to be available yet in the maven repository.

I have just posted something to repository@ to find out whether it is just a delay, or whether I did something which does not follow the expectations of the repo infrastructure.

Regards,

Antoine

That's ok, I'm only moving our project to Ivy this week; we have no hard

Hello Steve,

the libs should already be in the maven repository.

But pay attention : groupId is now org.apache.ant, not ant any more.

OK, that have been +1s by plenty of people by now.  I'll build release

Hi,

I have not done anything much with antunit yet, but I am also +1.
It is a cool way of testing ant tasks.

I just had a vague memory of a request to make antunit ant 1.6 compatible,
but I am cool with making it depend on ant 1.7.

So +1 for releasing antunit 1.0.

Not at all.  Apart from relying on ResourceCollections it uses a bunch
of other API changes or the new backtrace attribute on macrodef.

I was thinking of adding beforetests/aftertests, but
that can wait for 1.0.1 IMHO.

I haven't seen anybody complain about missing features in beta2, is
AntUnit ready for a 1.0 release?

Oh, we need to put the libs up on the maven repository, along with 
Ant-testutil.jar.

Does this also means we can go to 1.0 with <antunit>?

Congratulations!

Thanks for being the release manager; take a rest now and let the rest 
of the team handle the support calls. I'm waiting for the first 'doesnt 
work on win98 with spaces in the path and weblogic in CLASSPATH' defect 
to arrive.
