+ | DESCRIPTION |
+ Ant is great but to replace make for most "standard" build environments, it needs a way to specify any compiler and targets, not just javac/jikes and *.java->class files. Several of our projects have C modules as well. A <compile> tag with an attribute for specifying javac or jikes or gcc or bcc would be useful. Then running ant would build whole systems containing java and C files for quicker deployment without the makefile hassles.
