<h1>Ant Users</h1>
<p>If you have used Ant before than NAnt should feel comfortable but NAnt is only compatible with Ant in spirit. Here is a partial list of differences:</p>
<ul>
<li>Tasks do not have to be in a target. Tasks that appear directly in the project are executed inorder before any tasks in targets are executed.</li>
<li><strong>nant.onsuccess</strong> and <strong>nant.onfailure</strong> properties can be defined target names that will be executed at the end of the build.</li>
<li>NAnt looks for the first file ending in <strong>.build</strong> instead of build.xml.</li>
</ul>
