I've been reading the "tools" discussion, and all I use is emacs, jdk, and Netscape for reading the on-line documentation. The only change I'm tempted to make is to start using ant. But every time I've looked at anyone's ant script (is script the right word?), it's seemed alarmingly complex. So I'm wondering whether ant does anything that would make it worth the effort of learning to use it. Does it, for instance, work out the dependencies between files to determine what needs to be recompiled and what doesn't? -- Jeff To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
