I'm trying to really understand what's going on with the build.xml file and the directory structure in my development directory. I came across this property tag in the build.xml file that is located in C:\java, which is my development directory:
<property name="app.name" value="${ant.project.name}" >
Where does the value attribute come from? I can't find a spot where "${ant.project.name}" is defined. And this bothers me!
Also, given the following:
- <target name="init">
<property file="${user.home}/build.properties" />
<property name="app.name" value="${ant.project.name}" />
<property name="src.dir" location="src" /> <property name="lib.dir" location="lib" />
<property name="build.dir" location="build" />
<property name="classes.dir" location="${build.dir}/classes" />
<property name="dist.dir" location="${build.dir}/dist" />
</target>
- <target name="initdirs" depends="init">
<mkdir dir="${classes.dir}" />
<mkdir dir="${dist.dir}" />
</target>
- <target name="compile" depends="initdirs">
-
<javac srcdir="${src.dir}/java" destdir="${classes.dir}"> + <classpath>
<fileset dir="${lib.dir}" includes="j2ee.jar jr.jar" />
</classpath>
</javac>
</target>
if the /java is removed from <javac srcdir="${src.dir}/java" .......
would my html files,
jsp files, and com folder go directly in the src directory?
