<span style="color:blue;">''Recommended''</span>

As with other instructions on building from the command line, the Android client can also be built with an [https://ant.apache.org/ Apache Ant target]. The Ant target is a wrapper that calls the [[BuildStendhalForAndroid#Gradle|Gradle]] script and passes parameters to it. The same conditions related to invoking the Gradle scripts directly apply to using ant.

'''''See also: [[BuildStendhalForAndroid#Signing_Packages|section on signing packages]]'''''

From the Stendhal source root directory, execute the following.

Unix/Linux example:

<pre>

# with env variable set or sdk.dir set in local.properties

$ ant android

# manually setting env variable

$ ANDROID_SDK_ROOT="/path/to/sdk/root" ant android

</pre>

Windows '''cmd''' example:

<pre>

# with env variable set or sdk.dir set in local.properties

> ant android

# manually setting env variable (do not use quotes)

> set ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=C:\\path\\to\\sdk\\root

> ant android

</pre>

The resulting .apk packages will be located in the <span style="color:green;"><source root>/build</span> directory.

The build type can be set manually using the <span style="color:green;">android.build</span> property. Value can be one of <span style="color:green;">assembleRelease</span> or <span style="color:green;">assembleDebug</span>. The default is <span style="color:green;">assembleDebug</span>.

<pre>

$ ant android -Dandroid.build=assembleRelease

</pre>

Alternatively, an argument line can be passed to Gradle using the <span style="color:green;">gradle.params</span> property:

<pre>

$ ant android -Dgradle.params="assembleRelease assembleDebug"

</pre>
