Ant Support

The Ant module allows the execution of targets defined in a project file for use with Apache's Ant tool. Ant is a runtime that can be used to write scripts that are essentially a replacement for make. Ant is better than make because it is written in Java, creates cross-platform scripts, and uses XML as its scripting language.

This online help assumes you already know basically how to use Ant. A future version of the module will bundle Ant's own documentation and offer additional assistance in getting you started if it is your first time using Ant.
