Apache Ant 1.6.5 is provided with the Enterprise Server and can be launched from the bin directory using the command asant. The Enterprise Server also provides server-specific tasks for administration and deployment; see Chapter 3, The asant Utility. The sample applications that can be used with the Enterprise Server use Ant build.xml files; see Sample Applications.
For more information about Ant, see the Apache Software Foundation web site at http://ant.apache.org/.
