First on the command line try: ant -help This will show you the command line options. You will notice: ant -buildfile myfavoritebuildfile.xml is the option you are looking for.

Normally I use Ant by clicking on a pre-defined build.xml process inside e.g. Eclipse. However sometimes I would appreciate to have the chance to call Ant and an Ant build.xml script from command line and pass e.g. a file to it. Something like: java org.apache.ant.executescript D:\myproj\tbuild.xml D:\myproj\test222\somefile.java Can I do this somehow? If yes: how exactly would the command lokk like and how would I refer to the passed file (=parameter) from inside build.xml?
