Unidata IDV Workshop for version 6.3 > Java Developer Topics > Development Environment
5.0.4 Building with Ant
Now you should be able to build the IDV from scratch.
- Change to the
ucar
directory.
cd idv
- Execute the ant command to build
clean idv
.
ant clean idv
This removes all Java class files (there will be none
the first time), re-builds them.
- To run the IDV using your build use:
java -Xmx1024m ucar.unidata.idv.DefaultIdv
- For the purposes of this workshop, we've created an alias so you
can just type:
idvdev
- List out the CLASSPATH we have set up for you:
set | grep CLASSPATH
