Hello,

If you read the ant.bat file you see

"%_JAVACMD%" %ANT_OPTS% -classpath "%ANT_HOME%\lib\ant-launcher.jar" 
"-Dant.home=%ANT_HOME%" org.apache.tools.ant.launch.Launcher %ANT_ARGS% -cp 
"%CLASSPATH%" %ANT_CMD_LINE_ARGS%

Therefore "org.apache.tools.ant.launch.Launcher" out of "ant-launcher.jar" is 
the Java class Ant starts with.
So you need all the used ANT-Jars on your classpath and call the main method of 
this class or do yourself, what the main method does.

Betreff: Developing in Java with ANT

Hello Everyone,

I'm really new to Ant, and I need some help, my task is to code in JAVA a 
program to checkout a version of a open source project, compile it and run the 
test script which is in ANT.

I'm working on the Ant-Doxygen Project (but it could be any project).
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ant-doxygen

I'm already successful with coding the "checkout a version of a repository"
part.

In Ant-Doxygen project, they already have an XML file to build the project.
So once I have checked out the Project, all I need to do I to run ant to build 
the project. But, how can I code a way to run Ant to build this project? ( I 
need to code that in Java... I can't just go to my command line and run Ant.)

Thank you so much in advance
