Hey guys,
I am having alot of trouble getting a simple ant buildfile to work in eclipse.
I am following the tutorial on here (the part about ant files):
http://help.eclipse.org/help32/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.platform.doc.user/gettingStarted/qs-93_project_builder.htm
I have created a simple java project called HelloWorld and created a build file below in a package 'org':
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project name="HelloWorld" default="Hello" basedir=".">
<property name="HelloText" value="Hello"/>
<target name="Hello">
<echo>${HelloText}</echo>
</target>
</project>
According to the tutorial, I should get an outline in Eclipse (i use 3.2), etc, etc however I only get problems:
- Whenever I save the file I get "Save Failed: org/apache/tools/ant/launch/AntMain"
- When I attempt to add the buildfile to the 'Ant' pane on the right, I get error:
"failed to parse ant build file"
If anyone has any advice on how to get a simple ant file like the one above working, it would be so much appreciated!
Thanks
Gerry
