Thanks for that, Jan
I find shell scripts distinctly un-intutive, so no, I haven't tried it!
Do I have to use both Set and Export for ANT_HOME, do you think?
David
I understand that ~/.antrc and ~/.ant/ant.conf are parsed when Ant is
called from the command line. I also understand that these files can
include ANT_OPTS and ANT_ARGS parameters.
These file are executed by the wrapper scripts.
Therefore you can have a look into them to see what exactly you can do.
# load system-wide ant configuration (ONLY if ANT_HOME has NOT been
set)
if [ -z "$ANT_HOME" -o "$ANT_HOME" = "/usr/share/ant" ]; then
if [ -f "/etc/ant.conf" ] ; then
. /etc/ant.conf
fi
fi
# load user ant configuration
if [ -f "$HOME/.ant/ant.conf" ] ; then
. $HOME/.ant/ant.conf
fi
if [ -f "$HOME/.antrc" ] ; then
. "$HOME/.antrc"
fi
So i think you could also set ANT_HOME (btw - have you tried that?)
Can these files also include a definition for ANT_HOME?
I think it should - just try that out.
Could someone please confirm the correct syntax for these items.
The things I want to do are:
1. Set ANT_HOME
see above
2. Set a memory requirement for ANT_OPTS
possible (and intented)
3. Use the -lib property to point to the DITA Toolkit lib, and set a
property known as 'DITA_DIR'.
possible, set ANT_ARGS
