Subject: RE: Different types of document builds
|
We used make for a while before adopting Ant. It was much more
difficult to explain to writers than Ant proved to be, and customizing the
builds was more difficult for them, since they had XML tools for editing
DocBook, anyway, but were not familiar with pure text editors. Ant was also
available cross-platform, which was helpful in our environment (we had people
developing documents on HP-UX, Windows, and Linux systems). Regards, Larry Rowland From: Speights, Scott
[mailto:Scott.Speights@haufe-lexware.com] Hello
everybody, I
hear a lot about using Ant to build docbook documentation. Certainly, the support for the open
source tools for Ant is very good. I would like to ask the list if anybody has
had experience with other types of build systems like
MSBuild or Maven (not using the Ant plug-in) . When I search the web, I find lots of very good documentation about Ant, but only a very little
bit for Maven and nothing for MSBuild.
Has anybody given these a try? Thanks,
