Multiple Project Names

[Ankit V Agrawal]

Hi,

I would like to know whether we can build multiple projects through a single build.xml file(Ant) or do we need to have different files for different projects.

for example :

<project name="CertFiles" default="build" basedir=".">

this is the first line of my build.xml

can I another project name in the same build file??

No, the build.xml file is fully conformant with the XML standard, which specifies exactly one root node, no more, no less.

However, you can have multiple build xml files and have the master build.xml call them. You can name them whatever you want (build.xml is just the default name).

Yes I got your point. But could you please tell me how to cal other build files from the master build file. I'm unaware of such calls.

Thanks

Try something like:

<ant antfile="subproject/subbuild.xml" dir="subproject" target="compile"/>
