The Apache Jakarta Project has released version 1.5Beta2 of its cross-platform Java- and
XML-based build tool, Ant.
The Jakarta Project describes Ant as a build tool "kind
of like Make, but without Make's wrinkles and with the full
portability of pure Java code." The release announcement
states that this release of Ant provides greater stability
than the 1.5Beta1 release, along with numerous bug fixes. A
changelog lists the changes between the 1.5Beta1 and 1.5Beta2 releases as well
as the changes made since the 1.4.1 release, which include
numerous feature enhancements.
