Using ant on Z/OS (OMVS)

[Joyce Li]

Has anyone been able to run Ant successfully on Z/OS (OMVS)?

I am using a normal Ant 1.6.1 distribution and converted all the files under
the bin folder to EBCDIC inorder to run them.  I got the following exception
with the command "./ant -version".

        org/apache/tools/ant/ExitException

Please help.

Thank you.
