    • +
  • Various improvements to the directory scanning code that help with symbolic link + cycles (as can be found on MacOS X Java installations for example) and improve + scanning performance. For big directory trees the improvement is + dramatic.
    • +
  • The way developers can extend Ant's property expansion algorithm has been rewritten + (breaking the older API) to be easier to use and be more powerful. + The whole local properties mechanism is implemented using that API and could be + implemented in a separate library without changes in Ant's core. + Things like the yet-to-be-released props Antlib can now provide often required + "scripty" fuctions without touching Ant itself. + At the same time the if and unless attributes have been rewritten to do the expected + thing if applied to a property expansion (i.e. if="${foo}" will mean "yes, do it" + if ${foo} expands to true, in Ant 1.7.1 it would mean "no" unless a property named + "true" existed). This adds "testing conditions" as a new use-case to property + expansion.
    • +
  • A new top-level element <extension-point> assists in writing re-usable + build files that are meant to be imported. <extension-point> has a name + and a dependency-list like <target> and can be used like a <target> + from the command line or a dependency-list but the importing build file can add + targets to the <extension-point>'s depends list.
  • Ant now requires Java 1.4 or later
  • new task include provides an alternative to <import> that should be preferred when you don't want to override any targets
