MVC Frameworks are notorious for requiring developers to spend most of their time working on the framework’s classes instead of the actual code. Since I posted the article about the Ant tasks for RobotLegs I was asked couple of times to show how to use the Ant tasks.
Why Ant tasks? The whole idea of the Ant tasks is to speed up your development and allow people that are not that familiar with RobotLegs to get started quickly on PC or Mac. I decided to create a video showing how I can create an AIR web browser application using RobotLegs with the MVCS implementation and try to do that in less than 2 mins, pretty bold ha?!
The application is going to be a simple web browser, see final screen shot below:
See the video tutorial here:

Feel free to download the Ant tasks:

Download the WebBrowser AIR project from here.
BTW I did end up cheating and do little copy&paste and it took 2:20 seconds… but you get the point 
Well done on that! I’m gonna try learn ant for the first time. Look forward to more
How do you manage import the ant projects into your workspace, and then use the ant stuff in your project. I successfully have ant installed into eclipse.
You need to check-in the project from git and than import a project in Eclipse - general > project (not a Flex project). After that you can set the properties file and you’re ready to use the tool
Thanks, did you every try Johns version?
