No file releases have been made yet. The only way to obtain Passant is via CVS. Check out the Passant module to an appropriate directory (henceforth known as {Passant}) and run Ant on the build.xml file located in the top directory.

Passant has been developed using Ant 1.5.3. No testing has yet been done on earlier or later versions.

Add {Passant} to the CLASSPATH. There is a shell script called setClassPath which will do this, but note that this script rather rudely OVERWRITES the current CLASSPATH.

Run "ant tests" to test the functionality; the result should be a successfully built Delphi/Kylix application located in /tests/exe.

To learn about the various options available for building Delphi/Kylix applications, take a look at the "test1" target in build.xml. This should give you a very good start. To get the details look at the (rather small) Dcc.java file.
