Why is no one using make for Java?

Question

Just about every Java project that I\'ve seen either uses Maven or Ant. They are fine tools and I think just about any project can use them. But what ever happened to make

Answer 1

Once upon a time I worked on a Java project that used gmake. My recollection is hazy but IIRC we had a hard time dealing with the package directory structure that javac expects. I also remember that building JAR files was a hassle unless you had something trivial.
