can anybody help me running Antelope(application for running Ant)

[Shailesh Sharma <sh...@yahoo.com>]

Hi,
I have downloaded Antelope(an application for running Ant) and am trying to run it directly as if iam running an applet.
Although i can run this Antelope application from it's startup command: ant -f run.xml

But as i need to put this application in an HTML page....i need to know how this Antelope Applet works directly when i invoke it from a command prompt as like this:
c:>java Antelope.class

If i can made it work like running an applet from a command, then it would be very easy for me to put this Antelope application in an HTML page.

can anybody please help me out in sorting this problem and understanding how to run this Application.

Shailesh,

The short answer is: java ise.antelope.app.Antelope [build_file_name]

The longer answer: You need to put the ant library files in your class 
path. Read through the run.xml file to see which files are necessary. 
Also, Antelope is not an applet. You'd need to write an applet yourself 
that would launch Antelope. I've never done this, so I don't know what 
problems might be encountered. Antelope uses the Java 1.4 Preferences 
classes to store it's settings, I expect that you'll run into sandbox 
security issues with those when running as an applet.

And a question: What is it you're trying to do? If you're just trying to 
run a build file from a web page, there are probably easier ways of 
doing it.
