Android hello world app

I was able to create a simple Android app. It simply displays the text "Jim's Application." But it is a start.

JUnits in Ant

I have no problems running JUnits in Eclipse provided in the Ant baseline and there are plenty of JUnits, so I would not be setting precedent by creating a new one or adding to an existing one.

Antunit Script to Plug into JUnit Runner

I pulled down the Antunit source code and was unable to find anything that looked like a tool I could plug into JUnit Runner, although, I am not sure what such a tool would look like.

Searching in the Antunit site did not turn up much either.

Not able to hit breakpoint in Eclipse

When I put a breakpoint in the execute method of Replace, however, Eclipse did not hit my breakpoint.

I looked over the post from the developer group and I noticed that Gles did not suggest that I use an Eclipse plugin for antunit, but a tool in the antunit trunk to plug antunit into Eclipse's JUnit runner.

Antunit and antdotnet

From http://ant.apache.org/antlibs/bindownload.cgi
I downloaded apache-ant-dotnet-1.0-bin.zip and apache-ant-antunit-1.1-bin.zip, found the .jar file in each and added them to my installation of ant.

This seemed to clear up problems I had with "ant test", although it ran for a while and just hung up.

After doing this, I was able to run one of the ant scripts which used antunit.
I ran src/test/antunit/taskdefs/replace-test.xml
And it ran successfully in Eclipse.

Zero errors!

Message looks like an error after tests complete

All the tests complete just fine from both the command-line and in Eclipse. It ran 1678 unit tests in about 12 1/2 minutes. I get the message below, however, about problems with the antunit task. I still cannot explain this one. But for what I need to do, I can probably run individual antunits rather than run the full unit test suite for my development.
