Ant build README
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have only tested this with ant build 1.4.1 so do not know if it is backwards
compatible with previous versions.
A lot of new options and targets have been added by Christian Geisert. This
really makes the build process more flexible and complete. Great thanks!!!!
For a list of these see step 7. below.

The new .jar file will be in the dist directly and named tn5250j and notmy5250j.

Steps to get started after setting up ant
-----------------------------------------
1. Create a base directory to place source
2. Create two directories beneath the base directory called lib and src
for example your directory structure should look like the following:
base directory
|
+ - lib
|
+ - src
3. Unzip and place all source files from tn5250j source zip file that was
downloaded into src directory.
!! As of the newest build.xml the manifest file is built for you automagically.
4. Place the included build.xml file into the base directory.
5. Place the extra .jar files used for mailing in the lib directory.
*** NOTE *** this is very important or some modules will not compile
You can download the e-mail api's from sun.
You will need two packages.
http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/
http://java.sun.com/products/javabeans/glasgow/jaf.html
JavaMail jar files
------------------
activation.jar
mail.jar
mailapi.jar
smtp.jar
Scripting jar files
------------------
jython.jar
The jython.jar file is part of cvs or you can install the whole packes from
https://sourceforge.net/projects/jython. Go ahead and download it so you
will have the interactive shell to play and test with the jython code
base.
6. Now execute ant using one of the methods described in the ant documentation.
using the sample bat file for windows below:
c:\basedirectory>build all
Sample Windows build.bat that I use on windows
----------------------------------------------
@echo off
rem this batch-file can be used to override the java_home or ant_home
rem environment or to set a special classpath and so on...
set ANT_HOME=D:\jakarta-ant-1.4.1
set JAVA_HOME=C:\jdk1.3.1
call %ANT_HOME%\bin\ant -buildfile build.xml %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
----------------------------------------------
For more information on the command line parameters that the build process
supports execute the following:
>ant -projecthelp
7. Main targets:
all Clean, Compile, Jar
clean Cleanup your workspace (delete build-directory, ...)
compile Compile your source-files

dist-bin-zip Create a Zip-File with all the binary files
dist-src Create a Zip and TGZ Archives with all source files
dist-src-prepare Prepares source distribution
dist-src-tgz Create a Tgz-File with all the source files
dist-src-zip Create a Zip-File with all the source files
info Prints a short summary of this project
