Switching Ant Versions
See Also
The IDE comes bundled with Ant version 1.8.1 and uses this installation to
run Ant scripts. You can change the version of Ant that the IDE uses by switching
the Ant installation directory in Ant Settings. You can only switch between
versions 1.5.3 and higher of Ant.
To switch the IDE's Ant version:
- Choose Tools > Options from the main window.
- Click Miscellaneous in the left panel of the window and expand the Ant node.
The Ant Home section displays the current Ant location and version.
- Click Manage Ant Home and select a new Ant installation folder.
- The Ant installation directory must contain a lib/ subdirectory
which contains the ant.jar binary.
If you enter a directory that does not match this structure, the IDE
gives you an error.
