Read the release/README.html document to see what general tools and environment variables are needed to build AHEAD.

Once you have installed the tools, you can build the AHEAD Tool Suite by running ant in the fop (top-most) directory:

    fop/> ant

which will build the tool suite and run the AHEAD regression tests.  (Please be aware that the composer regression tests may fail.  We are aware of the problem but composer really is working fine).

All AHEAD tools will be found in the AHEAD/build directory.  If you are interested in how features are implemented, look in the AHEAD/DSL directory.  There you will find a set of AHEAD models, as represented by directories.  There is the Java model (Java directory), which contains about 80 different features that are used to build AHEAD tools.  Then there is kernel, which is a lone feature that is the base layer on which all ATS tools are built.  The bali layer contains a set of features for building bali tools, etc.  The AHEAD equations are stored in AHEAD/equations.
