where ${basedir} refers to?

[paskal_sanil]

Hi,

In the build.xml i have the following line to start the jboss-server:






can anyone tell me where it fetches this "${basedir}"? While i run build.xml build comes to fail on the above line. I can't figure out what the problem is.

It seems that build.xml shows some errors with few tags it cann't recognise. Is there something i need to include along with build.xml?

where can i get documentation that describes about writing build.xml?

Any help however small it may be will be greatly appreciated.

thanks in advance,
paskal
