 | 6 | Using Thrift with Java | 
 | 7 | ====================== | 
 | 8 |  | 
 | 9 | The Thrift Java source is not build using the GNU tools, but rather uses | 
 | 10 | the Apache Ant build system, which tends to be predominant amongst Java | 
 | 11 | developers. | 
 | 12 |  | 
 | 13 | To compile the Java Thrift libraries, simply do the following: | 
 | 14 |  | 
 | 15 | ant | 
 | 16 |  | 
 | 17 | Yep, that's easy. Look for libthrift.jar in the base directory. | 
 | 18 |  | 
 | 19 | To include Thrift in your applications simply add libthrift.jar to your | 
 | 20 | classpath, or install if in your default system classpath of choice. |
