If you created a new project or you imported an existing project without Ant then you need to create an Ant Build file to use Ant as the build tool in your project.Īnt works with the XML build file. You can create a new project, or if you have an exising project, import it. For more information, refer to the WSL section. You can also create an Ant project and store it in the WSL environment or open it from the WSL file system. Open the Installed tab, find the Ant plugin, and select the checkbox next to the plugin name. Press Ctrl+Alt+S to open the IDE settings and select Plugins. If the relevant features are not available, make sure that you did not disable the plugin. This functionality relies on the Ant plugin, which is bundled and enabled in IntelliJ IDEA by default. IntelliJ IDEA integrates with Ant to provide a comprehensive build process that includes compilation, packaging with the documentation and source code, committing to version control, and so on. Ant is a flexible and platform-independent build tool from the Apache Ant Project.
