How can I install Apache Ant on Mac OS X?

Question

I tried to install Apache Ant on my Mac and I followed the next steps :

1. I downloaded apache-ant-1.8.1-bin.tar.gz into my Downloads folder.

Answer 1

Use Brew is always good way to install ANT and other needs. To install type below command on terminal.

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

after Brew installation , type

brew install ant

This will install Ant on your system. Also you will not need to worry about setting up the path.
