These extensions are installed by copying their <code>.jar</code> files into ant's <code>lib</code> directory. Once this is done, these task extensions can be invoked directly in the typical <code>build.xml</code> file. The WOProject extensions allow [[WebObjects]] developers to use ant in building their frameworks and apps, instead of using [[Apple Computer|Apple's]] [[Xcode]] suite.

<code>Antcontrib</code><ref>{{cite web | url=http://ant-contrib.sourceforge.net | title=Ant-Contrib}}</ref> provides a collection of tasks such as conditional statements and operations on properties as well as other useful tasks.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://ant-contrib.sourceforge.net/tasks/tasks/index.html | title=Ant-Contrib Tasks}}</ref>{{sfn | Moodie | 2005 | loc = Chapter §10 Writing Custom Tasks - Using Third-Party Custom Tasks | pp=266-267}}

<code>Ant-contrib.unkrig.de</code><ref>{{cite web | url=http://ant-contrib.unkrig.de | title=ant-contrib.unkrig.de}}</ref> implements tasks and types for networking, [[Swing (Java)|Swing]] user interfaces, [[JSON]] processing and other.

Other task extensions exist for [[Perforce]], [[.NET Framework]], [[EJB]], and filesystem manipulations.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://ant.apache.org/manual/tasksoverview.html | title=Overview of Ant Tasks}}<!-- Bot generated title --></ref>
