...clean up the mess they make
This is cool. But I saw there’s a clean
target in the build file we haven’t talked
about yet...
Good catch—a clean target is there to clean up
the scraps of things that compiling leaves laying
around. It’s important to have a target that will
get the project back to what it would look like if
you checked the project out from the repository.
That way, you can test things from a new
developer’s perspective.
The final target we’ll discuss in the BeatBox build script deletes the directories created during the build
process: the bin directory for compiled classes and the dist directory for the final JAR file.
Since dist is the
default target,
you have to
explicitly tell
Ant to run the
clean target.

Ant runs the delete tasks to clean
up the bin and dist directories and
remove all of their contents.
