  1. APACHE ANT By Jovonte, Carson, and Fidelis

  2. Outline • What is it • Why use Ant • How it works • Built-in tasks • Running Ant • Of course examples!!!

  3. What is Ant? • Java library and command-line tool • Automates software building processes • Platform-independent scripting tool • Windows and UNIX/Linux

  4. Why use Ant? • Easy to use • Extremely flexible • Platform Independent • Does not impose coding conventions • Most IDE’s are hard to automate and harder to setup

  5. How does it work? • Three components: JDK, XML parser, and Ant  • Easy to create own Ant “tasks”, in addition to core tasks • Tasks do the actual “build” work in Ant • Eclipse, NetBeans, JBuilder, VisualAge, and almost any other Java IDE has Ant integration built-in to the system • Extremely flexible • C, C++, Java

  6. Some Built-in Tasks

  7. Some Built-in Tasks cont’d.

  8. Running Ant • 4 Easy steps to run ant. • Make a simple class file in Java • Make a simple build.xml • Place both files into the same directory • Run “ant compile jar run”

  9. Running Ant • 4 Easy steps to run ant. • Make a simple class file in Java • Make a simple build.xml • Place both files into the same directory • Run “ant compile jar run”

  14. Output Output

  15. Java Example

  16. Ant with Android (windows) • Install the correct paths • Setup ant.properties / Keystore - Use the final command

  17. Install Paths Apache Ant C:\Users\Carson\Desktop~~\Apache Ant\apache-ant-1.9.3\bin; JarSigner Installed with the java sdk (Java SE) Android C:\Users\Carson\Desktop\Workspace\Eclipse\tools Your tools can be downloaded by the android ADT/SDK when you are using Eclipse.

  18. Keystore (JarSigner) - Create an ant.properties file. Notepad++ can save ‘.properties’ files. key.store = .keystore key.alias = aliasName key.store.password = keystorePassword key.alias.password = aliasPassword - ‘keytool -genkey -keyalg RSA -keystore .keystore -alias aliasName -storepass keystorePassword’

  19. What is the final command? - ant release Creates the ‘.apk‘ file eligible for release on the android market-- in your project’s /bin folder.

  20. From Scratch 1/5 Where are the files: build.xml??? ant.properties .keystore .apk

  21. From Scratch 2/5 Where are the files: ant.properties??? .keystore .apk

  22. From Scratch 3/5 Where are the files: .keystore??? .apk

  23. From Scratch 4/5 Where are the files: .apk ???

  24. From Scratch 5/5 ant release Where are the files: .apk!!!!!!
