ANT build vs Make build |

----------------------- |

There are now two methods of compiling the Conient distribution. The existing |
8 |
+ |
Makefile method is still supported, but is of course limited in the OS's on |
9 |
+ |
which it can be run. The preffered method will be an XML based build script |
10 |
+ |
using ANT (http://jakarta.apache.org/ant) which will run on any platform. |
11 |
+ |
However, at this stage the ANT scripts are not completely finished and may |
12 |
+ |
have some odd behaviour. |
13 |
+ |
|
14 |
+ |
We envisage both the Makefile and ANT setups being maintained for some time, |
15 |
+ |
giving the developer a choice. This document still outlines the Makefile |
16 |
+ |
method of compiling, and will do so until such a point as the ANT scripts |
17 |
+ |
are deemed reliable. If, however, you wish to give the ant script a whirl, |
18 |
+ |
try the following after setting up ANT (see the ANT website for details); |
