Java JDK and Ant bundling?

Our dev people have decided to make a part of our software reliant upon glassfish, which requires the Java JDK and Ant. Setting up glassfish itself will require a scenario where these items will need to be already present, so that means Setup Prerequisites. Of course, IS doesn't come with any (and why should it?).

So my question is this: has anyone found any good ways of building setup prerequisites around these packages? Otherwise, can anyone offer any general advice based on their experiences trying to wrangle something like this?

At this point, any help would be appreciated.

Many thanks in advance.

Actually, InstallShield does ship with a JRE prerequisite, and you can right-click its icon and select Edit Prerequisite to see how it does what it does, and then make a copy that launches a Java SDK installer...
