Hello:
I can't get Ant to build for some strange reason I am new to Ant and I am using it to
build some examples. I followed all the instructions from the Ant web site but no
luck. I am using Ant 1.5 and j2sdk 1.4.1 beta. I have set the environment
variables to ANT_HOME=D:\Jakarta\Ant\jakarta-ant-1.5 and JAVA_HOME=D:\j2sdk1.4.1.
My path is
Path=C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\system32\WBEM;D:\Jakarta\Ant\jakarta-ant-1.5\bin;D:\j2sdk1.4.1\bin.
I am using Windows XP. I received the following message when try to run Ant. I get
the same message when I type java at the prompt.
D:\example\ex1>ant
Usage: java [-options] class [args...]
(to execute a class)
or java -jar [-options] jarfile [args...]
(to execute a jar file)
where options include:
-client to select the "client" VM
-server to select the "server" VM
-hotspot is a synonym for the "client" VM [deprecated]
The default VM is client.
-cp -classpath <directories and zip/jar files separated by ;>
set search path for application classes and resources
-D<name>=<value>
