Running Ant with Eclipse

If you are using Eclipse, you never have to leave the IDE to run Ant and your

application server (there are many plug ins for many application servers).

To run Ant, right click the build.xml file and select "Run Ant... " to launch the script.

technology you have to sync up Eclipse by running refresh and the rebuilding the

project; however, if you run the Ant build file inside of Eclipse it automatically refreshes.
