Automatically run Ant on the default target of the build file for frontmost buffer (Run.bsh v1.0 by Philip Weaver)
Submitted by on Tuesday, 7 March, 2006 - 09:47
It's kind of cumbersome to have to switch between ProjectViewer and AntFarm during development. So I created this simple macro (3 lines) to allow me to press command-r to run the nearest build file for the frontmost buffer. You'll also need to create a keyboard shortcut yourself.
The script assumes that AntFarm and ProjectViewer are docked in the same pane. Whenever AntFarm runs, its panel becomes visible automatically, so the macro quickly switches it back to ProjectViewer (which I always leave open.)
