For those who want more details on using this...
Ant now allows you to set global preferences (assuming, of course, that the
build file actually reads in these "global" prefs ;-)). For instance, if you
always want to use Jikes as your compiler, create a file called .ant.properties
with the following line:
build.compiler=jikes
.ant.properties is a standard Java properties file and must be placed in the
location specified by ${user.home}. Based on my best guess, this _should_ be one
of the following (depending on your platform):
Unix/Linux => $HOME/.ant.properties
Win 9x => %SYSTEMDRIVE%\.ant.properties
Win NT/2000 => %USERPROFILE%\%USERNAME%\.ant.properties
However, the easiest way to find out is by executing a trivial Ant target such
as the following:
<target name="echo">
<echo message="user.home = ${user.home}"/>
</target>
On my Win 2000 machine, this outputs the following:
user.home = C:\Documents and Settings\celkins
