        Ant in Action
      </h4>
                        <p>Published April/May 2007, and covering Ant 1.7.</p>
                                <p>This is a major rewrite of the first edition; still 600 pages long.
        </p>
                                <p>
          This book moves up from Ant1.5 to Java1.5 and 1.7, with a near-complete
          rewrite of the applied-ant section, covering new topics such as
          antlibs, repository management with Ivy, Xml Schema validation,
          EJB3.0/Java EE development and advanced deployment using SmartFrog.
          The ant coding section looks at AntUnit, antlib authoring and
          scripting languages, while the beginners chapters, the first third
          of the book, still shows developers how to build, test, package and
          redistribute a Java application.
        </p>
                                <p>
          If you are one of the 20,000+ owners of the first edition, it is now
          obsolete. Sorry :)

          This is not a reference guide to Ant, but a book on how to automate the build process.
          The core build, continuous integration, reporting and release management
          are all covered. Ant is of course central to this. This is a fun read!

        Managing Build Complexity with Apache Ant 1.6
      </h4>
                        <p>As Apache Ant is applied to increasingly difficult tasks,
        its users are creating more complex and less legible build
        files. This is due, in part, to the limited tools for
        decomposition and code reuse within previous versions of
        Ant.</p>
