[M2] plugin that uses ant targets?

[Milos Kleint <mk...@gmail.com>]

hello,

I would like to rewrite the nbm plugin (generates Netbeans module
files) from M1 to M2. Currently the plugin uses jelly to call ant
targets coming from netbeans.org that take care of the correct
packaging. I understand that in M2 I'm supposed to write java code. 
Any existing example of a M2 plugins that does simething like that?

thanks  alot

Ant tasks are Java code! You can call them from Java easily as a standard
java class:

MyTask task = new MyTask();
task.setXXXX(...);
task.execute(...);

If they do need a Project object, then you can add:

Project project = new Project();

See also http://ant.apache.org/manual/index.html althouhg it's a bit old.
You can also check the Cargo source code which uses several Ant tasks. 

It's working great for me.

Thanks
