Writing a Simple Buildfile

Ant's buildfiles are written in XML. Each buildfile contains one project and at least one (default) target. Targets contain task elements. Each task element of the buildfile can have an id attribute and can later be referred to by the value supplied to this. The value has to be unique. (For additional information, see the Tasks section below.)
