Answer 1

There may be two situations.

1. No build.xml is present in the current directory
2. Your ant configuration file has diffrent name.

Please see and confim the same. In the case one you have to find where your build file is located and in the case 2, You will have to run command ant -f <your build file name>.

Answer 2

Using ant debug after building build.xml file :

in your cmd your root should be your project at first then use the ant debug command e.g:

c:\testApp>ant debug 

Answer 3

If you couldn't find the build.xml file in your project then you have to build it to be able to debug it and get your .apk

you can use this command-line to build:

android update project -p "project full path"

where "Project full path" -- Give your full path of your project location

after this you will find the build.xml then you can debug it.
