Build file

Question

Hi...
How can I use a ANT script tu build my project? I already
have the "build.xml" file, but I dont know how to use it in my
project.
I was trying to do it looking at project-properties-builders.
I've created a new builder selecting the build.xml file that I have
in the field location, and the other values I haven't changed.
However I've got the following error:
Errors during build.
Errors running builder "Integrated External Tool Builder" on
project my_project
Exception occurred executing command line.
CreateProcess: C:\workspace\my_project\flex\build.xml error
193
I belive I might be doing something wrong. Could you help me
find my mistake?
thanks in advance

Here is a working example of the ANT script to build flex
app. In you case it seems that you're missing the flex jar for ant
specified in my script by:
<taskdef resource="flexTasks.tasks"
classpath="${ANT_HOME}/lib/flexTasks.jar" />
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<project name="Builder" basedir="..">
<taskdef resource="flexTasks.tasks"
classpath="${ANT_HOME}/lib/flexTasks.jar" />
<property name="FLEX_HOME" value="C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3\sdks\3.0.0"/>
<property name="APP_ROOT" value="${basedir}"/>
<target name="build">
<mxmlc file="${APP_ROOT}\src\Analysis.mxml" debug="false"
output="${APP_ROOT}/bin/no-debug/Analysis.swf"
optimize="true"
strict="true"
warnings="false">
<load-config
filename="${FLEX_HOME}\frameworks\flex-config.xml"/>
<source-path path-element="${FLEX_HOME}\frameworks"/>
<compiler.include-libraries dir="${APP_ROOT}/libs"
append="true">
<include name="corelib.swc" />
</compiler.include-libraries>
</mxmlc>
</target>
</project>
