Description Milan Kubec 2001-08-31 08:54:43 UTC 
There should be somewhere displayed version of ant used in IDE. Either in
properties for Ant Settings (tab Info) or better in Module properties for ant
module in tab Expert. Once there is more stable ant versions IDE should inform
users about current version in IDE. IMHO the best would be to have there the
string, which is printed out when you type ant -version, e.g.: 

Ant version 1.3 compiled on March 2 2001
Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2001-08-31 18:56:40 UTC 
I agree it should be available. Neither of the places you suggest is
possible unfortunately (not under module control). Perhaps a read-only
property in Ant Settings. Also ${ant.version} should resolve to it, as
it does I think in commandline Ant.

Note that for a released version of the Ant module, the Ant library
should be some released version, and the Ant manual should say what it
is. Still some sort of confirmation from ant.jar would be in order.
Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2001-09-27 19:52:22 UTC 
Implemented. r/o prop on AntSettings, and ${ant.version} in builds.

1.13 ant/src/org/apache/tools/ant/module/AntSettings.java
1.9  ant/src/org/apache/tools/ant/module/AntSettingsBeanInfo.java
1.15 ant/src/org/apache/tools/ant/module/Bundle.properties
1.15 ant/src/org/apache/tools/ant/module/run/TargetExecutor.java
Comment 3 Milan Kubec 2001-10-03 08:45:36 UTC 
Verified in build dev-20011003.
Comment 4 Quality Engineering 2003-06-30 14:46:28 UTC 
Resolved for 3.3.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
