New to Ant

[David Mitchell <dm...@oproma.com>]

Hi Eveyone,

I'm new to Ant and actually had it working without a hitch a few days
ago.
Now when I go back to build the same project that I had it working with
previously I get some strange behaviour.

When I go to the dir where my Java source and build file is on the
command line and enter the command "Ant", instead of the source building
like it was previously, I instead a list of commands that are available
to the Java compilier, as if I was trying to run javac. Same thing if I
run Ant with various commamd switches such as Ant -v.

Am I problem missing something fundamental due to my lack of knowledge
of Ant. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

Dave

Try using the full path to ant to ensure use of correct application and see
if results vary.

Hi Sean,

Thanks for your input. Something must be seriously wrong with my
enviroment, because even this does not work. I still get the javac
compiler options when I run Ant.
I've reset all of my environment variables for Ant thinking this was the
problem... Still no luck.

Hi David,

Recommend you get more info on the problem.
turn on debug and capture the output to logfile
 with "-debug -logfile dmitchell.log" added to your ant command line.
examine the dmitchell.log in text editor.

Regards,
Sean
