Anybody who has worked on them for anytime has run into the dreaded tab problem. Why another build tool when there is already make, gnumake, nmake, jam,andothers? Because all those tools have limitations that Ant's original authorcouldn't live with when developing software across multiple platforms.Make-liketools are inherently shell-based: they evaluate a set of dependencies,then execute commands not unlike what you would issue on a shell.This means that youcan easily extend these tools by using or writing any program for the OS thatyou are working on however, this also means that you limit yourself to the OS,or at least the OS type, such as Unix, that you are working on. In theory, it is kind of like make, without make's wrinkles.
