ant: Print debugging information.
$ ant -d
try on your machine

The command "ant -d" is used to run Apache Ant in debug mode.

  • "ant" is the command to invoke Apache Ant, a Java-based build tool used primarily for building Java applications.

  • "-d" is a command line option or switch that stands for "debug". When used with Ant, it enables debug mode and provides more detailed information about the build process. This can be helpful for troubleshooting and identifying any issues that may arise during the build process.

By running "ant -d", you will execute the Ant build script specified in the current directory while also getting additional debug information displayed in the console.
