What is the different between using ant tasks and antrun plugin?
Hi,
I am trying to execute some existing ant build.xml files with maven 2. I am
confuse if i should use antrun plugin (
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-antrun-plugin/) or ant tasks (
http://maven.apache.org/ant-tasks.html)
Can someone help to explain?
Thanks.
A.

Use ant-tasks if you want to integrate certain Maven functions into
your ant build.xml scripts. This is for people who want to keep using
Ant as their primary build tool. I don't think you want to do this.
Use antrun plugin if you want to call ant tasks from your Maven build.
This is for people who are trying to use Maven as their primary build
tool. I think this is what you're trying to do.
