What are the core concepts of ant?..

Answer / Prakash Jangpangi

"The core concepts of Apache Ant include: Buildfiles (build.xml), targets, tasks, properties, and dependencies. A buildfile contains a series of tasks that define how to compile, package, test, and deploy an application. Targets are logical units within the buildfile, representing distinct steps in the building process. Tasks are predefined or user-defined actions performed by Ant, such as compiling Java source code or copying files. Properties allow for storing and sharing values throughout the buildfile, while dependencies help manage the execution order of tasks."n
