A new version of antmerge has been released, as is available at
http://www.russet.org.uk/download/java/antmerge
Please feel free to try it out, if you think it will be useful to you.
What is it?
----------
Antmerge is a tool for merging two ant build files, producing a poor
mans inheritance as a result.
We wrote antmerge because of the large amount of duplication that was
occuring between build files for similar projects.
There are a number of other similar tools out there. Antmerge is
probably the simplest. You can use standard tools to generate the
ant files that it works on, and the source build.xml that it generates
can be parsed by any IDE that understands ant. Once generated the ant
build file will work independantely of antmerge.
For further details please see the documentation in the /doc
directory.
Copying

For copying conditions please see the file LICENSE. For futher
documentation, please see the directory /doc.
Who wrote this?
--------------
Antmerge was written as part of the myGrid project
(http://www.mygrid.org.uk), as a result of a need arising from this
project. We are releasing it in the hope others will find it useful.
Antmerge was written primarily by Phillip Lord ([email protected]),
and Nick Sharman ([email protected]), which employed by the
University of Manchester.
