We are currently using ANT as our build tool and we are proposing our developers to use Maven as their build tool.
Our developers are resisting this change and asking us to give the benefit we will achieve by migrating to Maven. From the blogs what I read Maven can help in reducing build time when compared with ANT.
Can you please give us any reasoning how MAVEN Build script can reduce the build time when compared to ANT? Is this statement true in the first place?
NOTE: Ours is a legacy application that is developed in Core Java.
Are they are any other powerful feature in Maven which DEV might be intrested in? Which can help us in getting their buy for migration to Maven?
