    Shirodkar,

    MyEclipse does not have any special support for ant build files, beyond the support Eclipse provides. If you create a new file named build.xml and you double click it, it should automatically open with Eclipse’s Ant editor. If that doesn’t work, you can right click the file, choose Open With > Ant Editor.

    Let us know if you require further assistance.

    i want to know if there any support by which we can create a built structure in MyEclipse and get the details added in the build.xml file without manually writing build commands like mkdir in the build.xml file

    I’m sorry, there isn’t support for this at this time.

    I’ve wished for that feature for a long time. MyEclipse is great for developing on a local tomcat, but then I have to use ant to make my test and prod builds.

    Lee,

    For your test and prod builds can you just use File > Export > J2EE > EAR file or WAR file? That’s really what we intended them for.

    There are changes in the config files from dev to qa to prod — how is that handled?

    Lee,
    It will need to be handled manually. MyEclipse doesn’t have a concept of different stages of development with configurable hooks that would automate something like this at the time.

    Which is why folks are asking for the ant script (smile)

    Love the tool — not hassling ya — just keeping our desires known.

    Have a look at VirtualAnt: http://www.placidsystems.com/virtualant/
