As somebody who is a recent adopter of Java technology (I'm a Windows/.Net
developer at heart) there are lots of things like Ant, Maven etc that I need
to get up to speed on. Given my background what I find particularly
frustrating is the Java world's reliance on command line tools like Ant. Has
nobody thought about the productivity issues this opens? Providing a
competent GUI to front end such tools can only benefit their adoption and
generally improve developer productivity.
However, exchange this view with
a typical java-head and typically you get a high handed response that
pooh-poohs such considerations.
