So Ant works. This message is there because you need to write an individual
buildfile for your
project. With a <tt>ant -version</tt> you should get an output like
<pre>
-Apache Ant version 1.7.0 compiled on December 13 2006
+Apache Ant version 1.7.1 compiled on June 27 2008
</pre>
-

+</p>
+<p>If this does not work ensure your environment variables are set right. They
must resolve to:
+<ul>
+ <li>required: %ANT_HOME%\bin\ant.bat</li>
+ <li>optional: %JAVA_HOME%\bin\java.exe</li>
+ <li>required:
%PATH%=...<i>maybe-other-entries</i>...;%ANT_HOME%\bin;...<i>maybe-other-entries</i>...</li>
+</ul>
+<b>ANT_HOME</b> is used by the launcher script for finding the libraries.
+<b>JAVA_HOME</b> is used by the launcher for finding the JDK/JRE to use. (JDK
is recommended as some tasks
+require the java tools.) If not set, the launcher tries to find one via the
%PATH% environment variable.
+<b>PATH</b> is set for user convinience. With that set you can just start
<i>ant</i> instead of always typing
+<i>the/complete/path/to/your/ant/installation/bin/ant</i>.
