[jira] Commented: (MANTTASKS-71) running m2 inside Ant

["Bernd Schuller (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MANTTASKS-71?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=131126#action_131126 ] 

Bernd Schuller commented on MANTTASKS-71:
-----------------------------------------

Actually one usecase for this would be to maven-enable builds that rely heavily on ant, and use ant in some weird way :-)
One such example is Eclipse rich-client development.
A simple <maven> task would be very very handy here.

> I'm thinking out loud now, but given that we have the artifact and pom tasks, and m2 is embeddalbe - for those still using Ant as their primary environment, but might want some m2 projects we could have an m2 task. The artifact tasks (whould could hopefully install themselves a bit more easily in future) could pull down the necessary m2 libraries and fire it up to run goals.
