<h1> antRunner application entry point</h1>
<p class="Para">The Ant core plug-in declares a main entry point that allows the running of Eclipse's integrated Ant support in a headless environment.
An Ant build can then be run directly from the main platform launcher.</p>
<p>This is an example .bat file that shows how to make use of the antRunner application entry point on Windows.</p>
