I have a java project that uses an external code generation tool whose source I get on irrelevant ways. Now, to build I need to execute a driver script that builds and runs the tool.
Problem: There is no way (or is there?) to specify different scripts depending on the host system (.bat for windows, .sh for everyone else).
So I thought to fall back on ruby for that. On unix all this isn't a problem, just mark executable and go, exec() will take care of that.
But ('Edit launch configuration properties')
${workspace_loc:/substrm/lib/mytool.rb}
as the executable does not work: CreateProcess error=193, %1 ist keine zulässige Win32-Anwendung [is not a valid win32 application].
Is there any way to specify something as the builder that can actually work under windows and unix alike? Binaries obviously don't cut it; .bat files I can't write in a way that they do something sensible in unix (would need to start with a #!).
Hmm, it looks like I do actually need to use ant as a proxy for that. At least that does not obviously not work.
(I just chose ruby because I know it and can write the necessary glue code in it, and was under the apparently wrong expectation that registered extension can start interpreted scripts just like #! in unix.)
