Couldn't find ANT in the Cygwin repositiories. Why's that?

Installing ANT on Cygwin

I've just installed Cygwin and managed to get all the required stuff up and running but I couldn't figure out why ANT wasn't listed in the Cygwin repos. Could someone tell me why, please?

MAKE was, ANT wasn't. I might be missing something here.


Solution

  • ant is a java program and is not unix specific and so does not need cygwin to run. Install directly from apache ant

    You can modify ant.bat for use under Windows directly or the shell script ant for use under cygwin
