KSB's Ant Notes

Description

"Ant is a Java-based build tool. In theory, it is kind of like Make, but without Make's wrinkles."

Ant of course has wrinkles of it's own, but those apparently are better wrinkles than Make's. As a developer, I'm not too happy about needing to learn the idiosyncrasies of yet another build tool. Oh well, when in Rome...

Setup

Running ant

Writing build.xml files
