Re: [platform-ant-dev] New Ant Support available in today's integration build (20020409)

It took some time to answer you question :-) Look at the new External Tools
support. If you right click on a project -> Properties -> External Tools
Builders you can add an Ant script as a project builder.

I understand that this probably won't make the 2.0
