== Preface ==
After doing things over and over I usually intend to automate that. In earlier
time I wrote (windows) batch files. But since some months sometimes I do that
with Ant.
Sometimes also things Ant was never designed for ...
== Installation ==
On my machine I have a directory c:\bin which is listed in the %PATH% variable,
so I can invoke shell command whereever I am.
The AntUtil contains several files: the buildfile, the batchfile and an
optional propertyfile. Additionally some targets require template files.
== antutil.bat ==
{{{
rem Simply invoke Ant and store the currend directory as Ant property.
@echo off
ant -buildfile c:\bin\antutil.xml %* -DcurDir="%CD%"
}}}
== antutil.properties ==
{{{
# used to save common settings
# on my machine empty
}}}
