Plupload is a JavaScript API for dealing with file uploads it supports features like multiple file selection, file type filtering, request chunking, client side image scaling and it uses different runtimes to achieve this such as HTML 5, Silverlight, Flash, Gears and BrowserPlus.
- Install the Java JDK or JRE packages you can find it at: http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
- Install Apache Ant you can find it at: http://ant.apache.org/
- Add Apache Ant to your systems path environment variable, this is not required but makes it easier to issue commands to Ant without having to type the full path for it.
In the root directory of Plupload where the build.xml file is you can run ant against different targets.
