Run/Debug Configuration: Ant Target
This dialog lets you create a run/debug configuration for the selected Ant target.
Item | Description |

Name | This field shows the name of your Ant target that you have selected in the Ant Build tool window. |
Share | Select this check box to make the run/debug configuration available to other team members. If the directory-based project format is used, the settings for a run/debug configuration are stored in a separate .xml file in the If the file-based format is used, the settings are stored in the |
Single instance only | If this check box is selected, this run/debug configuration cannot be launched more than once. Every time a new run/debug configuration is launched, IntelliJ IDEA checks the presence of the other instances of the same run/debug configuration, and displays a confirmation dialog box. If you click OK in the confirmation dialog box, the first instance of the runner will be stopped, and the next one will take its place. This makes sense when the usage of certain resources can cause conflicts, or when launching two run/debug configurations of the same type consumes too much of the CPU and memory resources. If this check box is not selected, it is possible to launch as many instances of the runner as required. So doing, each runner will start in its own tab of the Run Tool Window or Debug Tool Window. |
