public class Main

extends java.lang.Object

Command line entry point into Ant. This class is entered via the cannonical `public static void main` entry point and reads the command line arguments. It then assembles and executes an Ant project.

If you integrating Ant into some other tool, this is not the class to use as an entry point. Please see the source code of this class to see how it manipulates the Ant project classes.
