How to Implement Ant in a Project

[deepak kukreja]

Hi,

I want to use Ant in the development of my application
Could somebody tell me what are thr pre-requisites and what configurations I need to do once I start using it?

Thanks,
Deepak

Ehmm... well you need a JRE, which I assume you will have for your project anyway. And you need to set up your environment as per the Ant docs. And thats all.

"dnewco",

We're pleased to have you here with us on the Ranch, but there are a few rules that need to be followed, and one is that proper names are required. Please take a look at the JavaRanch Naming Policy and adjust your display name to match it.

In particular, your display name must be a first and a last name separated by a space character, and must not be obviously fictitious.

Thanks!
