This is a very minor release with only two fixes.

-- issue #517 -- StarTeam driver does not delete local files during the 
"getWorkingProject" stage.  The required missing parameter to the 
delete-local command has now been added.  Also, Anthill now recognizes 
101 and 102 as legal return codes.

-- issue #673 -- ANT return code on Windows is not valid for failed 
builds.  We've been struggling with this issue for a while, and here is 
what we hope is the final solution.  The problem centered around the 
ant.bat file used to launch the ANT process.  The exit code returned by 
a call to ant.bat was not the exit code of the JVM (and thus ANT) but 
the exit code of statements that came in the ant.bat file after the 
invocation of the JVM.  Our fix was to remove these statements that used 
to come after the invocation of the JVM.  We believe that it was safe to 
do so (especially when using ANT with Anthill Pro) and it has made the 
Windows version of the ant.bat file more similar to the Unix shell 
script used to launch ANT.

Please notice that in the latest Anthill Pro distribution, we've 
included the updated ant.bat file for the 1.5 (and earlier) version of 
ANT, as well as an updated ant.bat file for the 1.6 versions of ANT.  If 
you use a distribution of ANT that has not been packaged with 
AnthillPro, you will need to replace the bin/ant.bat file in your ANT 
distribution with file that comes with AnthillPro.



Thanks,
