Panther ships with Ant, XDoclet and JBoss!
I've just installed Panther and since you don't get stuff like CVS installed by default, I decided to open up the XCode CD and install the developer tools. To my surprise there are some Java tools tucked away including Ant, XDoclet, log4j and JBoss. If you install the Java tools, they can be found in :
- Ant 1.5.3, XDoclet 1.2b and log4j 1.2.8 in
/Developer/Java/J2EE - JBoss 3.2 in
/Library/JBoss/3.2
Wow. I knew that the server editions of Panther were going to include JBoss, but not the normal editions. It's nice to see Apple really pushing Java as one of their development platforms.
Re: Panther ships with Ant, XDoclet and JBoss!
It's on the regular developer CD. It's an optional extra so you have to choose it manually rather than doing the automatic installation.
It's a good idea to do that anyway, because there is also a bunch of useful profiling/analysis tools (the CHUD package) that aren't installed by default.
