Eclipse is Ant ready out of the box.
To make it Ivy ready, go to Window->Preferences->Ant->Runtime->Classpath->Global Entries
Click on 'Add External Jars' and add the Ivy jar that we downloaded earlier.
Now it is Ivy ready.
Copy the build.xml, ivy.xml, ivysettings.xml and ivysettings-public.xml to the HelloWorld project folder (in the root directory, same place as .classpath)
Go to Window->Show View->Ant - this will open the Ant viewer
Drag drop the build.xml to this viewer - you will now be able to see all the Ant targets in the build.xml
Double-click on the 'dist' target to build the HelloWorld.jar
In the Navigator view, select the HelloWorld project and hit F5 to refresh.
You will now see the /target and /classes directories that were added by the Ant build.
If you delete the /lib directory, then rerun Ant 'dist' and refresh - you will see the /lib reappear with the log4j.jar - proof that Ivy is working.
