ANT
Apache Website
Tutorials
- Eclipse based Tutorial
- Notes from Joran Anastasiade tutorial
- Ant is a Java-based build tool. Instead of a model where it is extended with shell-based commands, ant is extended using Java classes
- Instead of writing shell commands, the configuration files are XML-based, calling out a target tree where various tasks get executed.
- Installing Ant :
- Add the bin directory to your path. Set the ANT_HOME environment variable to the directory where you installed Ant. Assume ant is installed in c:\ant\. The following sets up the environment:
- set ANT_HOME=c:\ant
- set JAVA_HOME=...
- set PATH=%PATH%;%ANT_HOME%\bin
- ant buildfiles are written in XML – build.xml. Each buildfile contains one project and at least one (default) target.
- Targets contain task elements
