OpenJDK: using ant instead of make

[Alexander Schunk]

Hi,
i have tried to build openjdk on XP with the buildenv.bat used by Dan and my settings but i am missing the freetype lib from Igor so if anyone cand send me this lib i would feel great.
Also I think it would be easier to build openjdk on windows if we use ant instead of make.
The first obvious advantage ist that you can integrate it into an IDE and you only need to
run the ant script.
So besides improving the buildenv.bat i would suggest porting the make file to an ant skript for the windows plattform and i also was playing with the idea to set up a working environment for all XP plattforms.
Currently every one needs to set up his own build environment until has has set the corresponding vars.
I think it should be easier to have a programm or make it automatic to set these vars on every windows plattform. May be an installer like programm could do it using a wizard.
