how do i compile an external ant project with maven?

[Adam Gibbons <ad...@gmail.com>]

Hi there,

I'm trying to port an exiting Ant build project to use Maven instead, this
project depends upon another that is also built using Ant. I know in an
ideal world it would be best to port both projects to using Maven, sadly
that is not an option in this case (the business simply won't allow it).
I've done much searching but so far I can't find any documentation to
achieve this. Could someone point me in the right direction please?

Thanks in advance!!

Kind regards,
Adam

I know Googling is can be tough but please try "maven build ant
plugin" and then pick the very first result to read the documentation
you have been unable to find.

I'd be curious to know what other search terms you were using when you
did "much searching" and found nothing so the documentation can be
improved and more easily found in the future.
