ANT - Deployment Tool?
If you go to http://ant.apache.org you will see a
"Ant wins Java Pro award" section on top which says
ANT as "Most Valuable Java Deployment Technology".
But I cann't see much of *deployment* features in it.
I found it primarily *build* tool.
Having said that I want to use ANT as *deployment*
tool -as well-. Could someone give some pointers on that.
Thanks.

yeah ant's definitely a deployment tool. it's really nearly an "everything
you can automate" tool :).
anyway i was the buildmeister at my former corp and used it to build and
deploy our java app suite to the servers, restart servers, register
services, and the like. spend some time with the tasks....it's easily
extensible to deploy just about anything you'd like ever in the whole wide
world (woah been spending too much time with my daughter).

you can stop apache or tomcat (via exec or java)
you can build your war, ear or jar(see war, ear, jar tasks be mindful of the
application.xml)
you can copy war,ear,jar to the correct folder (copy task)
also copying your jsp,html to correct folder (webapps subdirectory)
you can restart apache or tomcat (exec or java)
The tricky part is reconfiguring application specific resources in your
WEB-INF/web.xml
But you can use %TOMCAT_HOME%/conf/web.xml as a template..
