EditXML: Building the Application

The binary distribution already contains all parts required for the Jakarta Tomcat installation (except for third party products). In this case, this part may be skipped.

The build process of EditXML is based on Ant version 1.3. We assume, that Ant is installed. Two scripts are contained in the distribution for the invocation of Ant: build.bat for Microsoft environments and build.sh for Unix-like operating systems. Their invocation is similar:

build [-D<variable>=<value>]* <target>

target description
build Creation of all parts for a servlet API 2.2 installation.
dist Creation of source and binary distribution. The binary distribution follows the servlet API 2.2.
variable description
build.dir Location of the servlet API 2.2 directory structure.
tomcat.home Installation directory of Jakarta Tomcat. We need servlet.jar for the build process.
xerces.jar Location of the XML parser (we need version 1.3.1 of Xerces).
