I am new to Ant scripts.
below is description of requirement
in my workspace, there are various projects and I have to have my project work on RAD and eclipse IDE as well as Websphere , tomcat and jboss environment.. i have made project specific settings to make the project work on RAD and websphere and eclipse and tomcat n jboss..
but there are changes in several files like classpath n few config files.
this leaves me with three versions of workspace.
but my idea is to have one workspace with multiple version of classpath for eg. classpath_eclipse, classpath_rad etc.. and have an ant script that will choose between the right files during build depending on which ide.
So guys please suggest some approach how can i implement this approach. totally new to ant. .:/
I would like to share the approach that I finally implemented.
There were classpath, settings and some project config xmls that were dependent on runtime.
In each project we created a runtime_classpah & runtime_settings and configxml_runtime version of each file.
Created a target in ant that takes in runtime as param ,itrates over each project & copies contents of classpath_runtime to classpath ,setting_runtime to settings.
And a target that overrites configxml with contents of configxml_runtime
