ant runs in the Java VM so ANT is task of the JVM

you can run 'ant' in a shell via Runtime.getRuntime.exec("ant.bat target")=
=3B
but in that case a JVM would be executing another JVM process

I would suggest thinking about incorporating the necessary ANT taskdef clas=
ses
into an included jar so your desktop or web application can incorporate the=
 requisite functionality by adding that jar to your classpath
