GUI tool for editing Ant files

[Adam Lancaster <la...@yahoo.com>]

Hello,

Does anyone know of a GUI tool for editing and running
ant build files? I have started development of my own
app that could do this and was wondering if it already
existed. If it does exist, I would like to help in the
development of the tool if possible. If it doesn't
exist, I would like to submit the code I have as a
baseline for further development.

Thanks.

Yes, there is such a tool. It's called Antidote and lives in it's own
repository.

See http://jakarta.apache.org/site/cvsindex.html

Not ATM, but we are working on it (especially since GUMP already
builds it).

Antidote is a subproject at Jakarta that does this.   Here's the README:


http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs/~checkout~/jakarta-ant-antidote/README?rev=1.1
&content-type=text/plain

You'll probably have to CVS to Jakarta to grab it.   I'm not sure if there
are binaries available anywhere.

Also, NetBeans (http://www.netbeans.org) has a fairly slick UI for editing
build.xml files (except it really bugs me that it alphabetizes the XML
attributes - I want 'name' to be the first attribute, not 'depends' on
target elements!).
