[OWASP-ESAPI] Ant buildfile

[Kevin Fealey]

Andrea,
Thanks a lot for your input.  Per your suggestion, 2 new build files have
been added to Swingset's root.

   - build-dist.xml is pretty much your attached build file.  It creates a
   WAR file and copies it to a location of your choice (I only changed the
   deploydir to "C:\ESAPI_Swingset\build" )
   - build.xml builds Swingset and runs build-dist's deploy target which
   creates the WAR file

For now, these additions are included only on the SVN.  There will probably
be a new release of Swingset sometime next week, and the build files will be
included in the source zip files.

I am having one problem with your build file.  Eclipse complains that
"build", the dependency of the "dist" target does not exist because it is
not in build-dist.xml.  "build" is in build.xml, so I would like to either
make Eclipse aware that I know where "build" is, or ignore the warning
altogether.  Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks,
Kevin
