Description

It would be nice if this extension supported the ant build system, such that this warning wasn't displayed. One workaround it to make a build.gradle file which contains ant.importBuild 'build.xml', but it would be nice if you didn't have to do this.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the classpath resolution logic in the extension's codebase, focusing on how Maven and Gradle support is implemented. Then, identify where Ant build files (build.xml) could be detected and processed to avoid the 'Classpath is incomplete' warning.
