Hi

I’ve recently downloaded Red5 8.0 and have followed the HOWTO-NewApplications.txt  
I don’t know how to compile this application so my question is:

Can I simply create a jar file, name it the same name as my application and run my client.

Or

Must I create a Jar file in ant or similar program, and if so how do I nab a build.xml file for my version of Red5.

Thanks for clicking on the post, please reply it would help me a lot!
