The aim of the Ant4eclipse project is to avoid redundancy of Eclipse and Ant configurations in order to build small but powerful build systems for the continuous integration process. It provides a set of tasks for the Apache Ant build tool. This tasks allow developers to use Eclipse configuration directly from their ant buildfiles. Included are tasks for reading Eclipse's .classpath file, for computing build order for a set of projects, and for launching Java applications as defined in Eclipse launch configurations.
