Installing ANT

Before installing ANT, make sure you have a Java environment installed. And then proceed for ANT installation. Check from command prompt if java is installed already in your machine. Type 'Java -version' to check if the java is installed or not.

Step 1: First please download the latest version of ANT . Click here to download ant
Note: Make sure you download the appropriate formats. As .zip format is recommended format for Windows Operating systems. It looks like apache-ant-versionxyz-bin.zip.

Step 2: Extract 'apache-ant-versionxyz-bin.zip' and rebane with proper name by removing the version as 'Apache Ant'. And place the extracted folder in C drive, preferably C:\Program Files.

Step 3: Now we need to SET the path in Environment variables as we do for JAVA.

Please find the below steps with screen shots to set the ANT Path:

From the desktop, right click the 'Computer' icon / Right click on my computer and Choose 'Properties' from the context menu. And Click the 'Advanced system settings' link.

Click 'Environment Variables'.
