How to run the version of Apache Ant that comes with StreamBase Studio from the command line.

To use Apache Ant from the command line, set the ANT_HOME environment variable and then add ${ANT_HOME}/bin to the end of the path.

StreamBase Studio uses the Eclipse IDE, and ships with the usual components of a JDT-oriented Eclipse installation. This includes the Eclipse plugin for Apache Ant.  The Eclipse installation is found in ${STREAMBASE_HOME}/lib64/studio for a 64-bit StreamBase Studio installation, or ${STREAMBASE_HOME}/lib/studio for a 32-bit installation. The Apache Ant plugin is located in the sub-folder: plugins/org.apache.ant<version>/. The exact name of the ant plugin directory will vary with the version that has been installed.

For example, using StreamBase 7.5.2 on Windows 64, ANT_HOME would be:

C:\tibco\sb-cep\7.5\lib64\studio\plugins\org.apache.ant_1.9.2.v201404171502

To use Ant from the command line, start a StreamBase Command Prompt from the root of a Studio project, then set ANT_HOME and add ANT_HOME/bin to the PATH:
 

You may also have to set JAVA_HOME to your desired JDK installation directory and add JAVA_HOME/bin to the PATH.

At this point, Ant will be usable from the command line.
