[Anthill] Java version confusion (Anthill OS)

[Paul.Chown at meteoswiss.ch]

Hi,

I know that only Anthill Pro allows the JDK to be changed on a
project-by-project basis, but is there a way to change the JDK used by
Anthill OS?

Our project has a LOT of external jars, some of which are used in the
Ant build process and so we have a separate JDK with everything we need
included. However if I try to start Tomcat with this JDK then Anthill
doesn't work. But if I use a standard Java version then my ant script
won't run. What I need to do is tell anthill to use a separate java
version to run ant. I don't care is this is the same for all projects as
we onley have one project anyway...

I have spent a day trying to figure out how to do this, which for an
'out-of-the-box' build tool is not very elegant.

It may be possible to use the standard Java version with an extended
class path, but I guess the class path needs to be set *before* ant is
called, and I can't see a way to do this either.

Regards,

Paul
