A one-hundred-percent Java based build tool that is used to compile, assemble, and run applications Instead of the traditional model where build envionrments are extended with shell-based commands, Ant is extended using Java classes Instead of writing shell commands, the configuration files are XML-based, calling out a target tree where various tasks get executed Each task is run by an object that implements a particular Task interface Ant is open-source and is an offering of the Apache Group Visit Ant's official web site for more information See Also Java
(Heb nemalah, from a word meaning to creep, cut off, destroy), referred to in Prov 6: 6; 30: 25, as distinguished for its prudent habits Many ants in Palestine feed on animal substances, but others draw their nourishment partly or exclusively from vegetables To the latter class belongs the ant to which Solomon refers This ant gathers the seeds in the season of ripening, and stores them for future use; a habit that has been observed in ants in Texas, India, and Italy
Ant is a make-like utility We endorse the use of Ant because it supports platform independence and it is easy to use In this tutorial we introduce Ant in the Trail02_GettingStarted trail We go into more detail in Trail05_Developing Components We provide several Ant examples in our demo applications and we provide an Ant template to use should you want help in making your own Ant build file
social insect living in organized colonies; characteristically the males and fertile queen have wings during breeding season; wingless sterile females are the workers
Ant is an amazingly useful tool for building, testing, deploying, and managing Java-based projects It replaces make as the tool of choice for building projects, as well as providing an excellent cross-platform utility for basic programming-task-related scripting We have used it on dozens of projects and can't live without it If you use no other Open Source tools, use Ant Related Ant reading
A Java-based, and thus cross-platform, build tool that can be extended using Java classes The configuration files are XML-based, calling out a target tree where various tasks get executed
Ants are small crawling insects that live in large groups. Antarctica. antonym. Any member of approximately 8,000 species of the social insect family Formicidae. Ants are found worldwide but are especially common in hot climates. They range from 0.1 to 1 in. (2-25 mm) long and are usually yellow, brown, red, or black. Ants eat both plant and animal substances; some even "farm" fungi for food, cultivating them in their nests, or "milk" aphids. Ant colonies consist of three castes (queens, males, and workers, including soldiers) interacting in a highly complex society paralleling that of the honeybees. Well-known ant species are the carpenter ants of North America, the voracious army ants of tropical America, and the stinging fire ant
