Does Microsoft Team System support ant?

Question

We are using cruisecontrol to build our projects, which are ant files. I'm now checking to use Team System (Microsoft) in the future. Is it possible to use ant scripts in Team System? We have a lot of Flex development (and .NET development) and the scripts to build the Flex side would need to be integrated in Team System.

Answer 1

Msbuild is delivered with the .net framework, and was designed to look/act alot like ant. That said, msbuild is also very extensible in that you can write custom tasks. I would suspect that writing a build task to call an ant script would not be too difficult to write.
