I think its
ant download
ant
but I dont have the same version...
when you unpack the source, actually I think you must SVN it, but anyway,
when its there, there is a BUILD.TXT file somewhere, and in there it will
have the details.
If I remember correctly I had to go onto the ant script and set the
directory for the
ant download.
Its quite an amazine thing to watch... it goes off to eclipse sites and half
the universe and gets all the dependent stuff... like JSP compilers and
stuff... when all that stuff is there it will build.
Also if you on NB... there is a NB article somewhere where some guy shows
you how to get all that going in Netbeans as well.
Enjoy
