I’ve been looking for this for a while: how to add Apache’s build tool Ant to Eclipse when it is not available to add as a view.
When you download and run the standard PDT for example, it is not available.
The answer seems to be: install the Eclipse Java Development Tools.
This may not be the ideal way but if you want to do this through the “Install New Software…” menu, it seems to be the only one.
Just select “Work with: Galileo” (or whatever your Eclipse version is) expand “Programming Languages” and select “Eclipse Java Development”.
After the installation completes you can add Ant as a view.
