| 48 | <para>The <application>Apache Ant</application> package is a

|---|
| 50 | <command>make</command>, but without <command>make</command>'s wrinkles.
|
|---|
| 51 | Ant is different. Instead of a model where it is extended with shell-based commands,
|
|---|
| 52 | Ant is extended using <application>Java</application> classes. Instead of writing
|
|---|
| 53 | shell commands, the configuration files are XML-based, calling out a target tree where
|
|---|
| 54 | various tasks get executed. Each task is run by an object that implements a
|
|---|
| 55 | particular task interface.</para>
