The Ant build files (
build.xml
) distributed with the examples contain targets to create
a
build
subdirectory and to copy and compile files into that directory; a
dist
subdir-
ectory, which holds the packaged module file; and a
client-jar
directory, which holds
the retrieved application client JAR.
The
tut-install
/examples/bp-project/
directory contains additional Ant targets
called by the
build.xml
file targets.
For some web examples, an Ant target will open the example URL in a browser if one
is available. This happens automatically on Windows systems. If you are running on a
UNIX system, you may want to modify a line in the
tut-install
/examples/bp-pro-
ject/build.properties
file. Remove the comment character from the line spe-
cifying the
default.browser
property and specify the path to the command that in-
vokes a browser. If you do not make the change, you can open the URL in the browser
yourself.
