Update 11/25/2013 A.D.: So, I'm back. Still pretty tied up with my other projects (and there's more than before), but I've managed to get some spare time to work on this :)
A universal build.xml for Minecraft mods that use Ant to compile.
LATEST STABLE VERSION: 4.1.1 (1/18/2013 A.D. 5:28 P.M.)
LATEST UNSTABLE VERSION: 5.0.0pre2 (1/31/2013 A.D. 8:57 P.M.)
I'm assuming that if you're here, you're either a MC mod developer, or just someone eager to use a better build.xml :P
So, why is this build.xml so awesome?
- Fast and Efficient
- The very first build, where it downloads and installs Forge, takes maybe around 8-12 minutes. The following builds will only take around 5!
- Easy to Use
- If you're a mod developer, all you have to do is put in the necessary strings for the properties! If you're a normal person, all you have to do is type in
ant!

- Hands-off
- Like stated previously, this needs absolutely NO interaction after typing in
ant! That means you can go do whatever you want!

- Easy to Understand
- There are many comments, so even someone totally new should know what to do.
- Universal
- Like the name states, this can be used for every Minecraft mod that uses Ant to compile!
