Is there ANT documentation?

I tried to build the tomcat HelloWorld sample application and get
various errors from ANT using build.bat and build.xml in
%TOMCAT_HOME%\doc\appdev\sample on Windows NT.  I worked through some of
them, but haven't been able to get it working.  I assume this should
work on NT...correct?

The Tomcat doc has a pointer to the Apache site to get ANT
documentation, but I cannot find the doc there.  Can someone provide a
pointer to the doc please?

Thank you very much for your help.

Thanks for your pointer.  Actually, I had already downloaded this file
and somehow didn't notice the doc directory in it.  What a dope! ;)

Thanks,

Rick

The docs for ANT are only included in the ant distribution.  Download and
unzip this file and you should have a docs directory with the documentation
you need.

 http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/tomcat/release/v3.1/bin/jakarta-ant.zip

I had the best luck in reading the docs and creating a completely new (
trimmed down ) build.xml soley to build and package my test application.  It
works great!
