一：介绍：
ant 是jakarta的一个编译工具，如果你了解linux/Unix下的makefile你就很容易
理解ant的用途了。ant最适合你使用UltraEdit(EditPlus)写java程序，然后你使用ant去编译，同时javadoc ,生成一个jar,war，实现文件的copy都可以在build.xml通过不同的tager去实现，还是很方便的一个东东强烈推荐是使用。
二：下载
你可以从下面的地址下载到ant,目前版本：1.41
http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-ant/release/v1.4.1/bin/
三：安装
a:)Windows
1:解压你下载的文件，会有一个jakarta-ant(版本号的)目录产生，把他改名为ant
2:copy ant 目录到你需要的位置。
3:在环境变量中添加：ANT_HOME=ant的安装目录，path中加$ANT_HOME$\\u0008in;注意你同时必须已经安装了jdk,并添加了JAVA_HOME的环境变量，同时早path中加了$JAVA_HOME$\\u0008in;
b:)Linux/Unix
1:解压你下载的文件，会有一个jakarta-ant(版本号的)目录产生，把他改名为ant
2:copy ant 目录到你需要的位置。
3:在环境变量中添加：ANT_HOME=ant的安装目录，path中加$ANT_HOME$\\u0008in;注意你同时必须已经安装了jdk,并添加了JAVA_HOME的环境变量，同时早path中加了$JAVA_HOME$\\u0008in;实现修改环境变量你需要修改.bash_profile文件。
如下
ANT_HOME=/usr/local/ant
JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jdk
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:/usr/local/ant/bin:/usr/local/jdk/bin
export PATH ANT_HOME JAVA_HOME
四:编写build.xml
build.xml相当Linux下的makefile,具体的实现都在build.xml中实现。
我给给例子说明一下。
build.xml
