Re: OT: Run Ant in MingW shell?

[Paul Kinnucan]

Hi Kai,

I just wanted to make sure that you are aware that the
JDEE provides comprensive support for running Ant scripts
from Emacs. You have a choice of either launching a 
vm directly from Emacs to run the Ant script or to
run the Ant from the BeanShell. In either case, there
is no need to use an intermediate shell and hence deal
with environment variable inheritance issues.
