OAK

Dorkbox OAK is a Java project management and build tool, using the Java language.

The main distinction between this tool and others, such as Ant, Maven, Ivy, Gradle, etc. is that this build tool lets you work directly in Java. Since you are building a Java project, it can safely be assumed that you already know Java, why use XML, Groovy, or some other language to build your project?

• This is for cross-platform use, specifically - linux 32/64, mac 32/64, and windows 32/64. Java 6+

For example:

• See Build.java to see an example

OR, for a "real world" example

• See the build code in the "build" directory, which is the build code used to build OAK
  • If you want to compile it yourself, copy the entire contents of the libs directory into the dist directory.
  • Then (from the project root), java -jar dist/OAK.jar build oak
    (note: make sure that you have the java JDK installed!)
