build.xml for plugins needing customization [message #80779]

if i do 'create plugin jars' from my plugin's plugin.xml file, it
generates a build.xml.

the generated build.xml needs some tweaks in my case. what's the best
way to do this - a separate xml file so it doesn't get overwritten, call

out to that xml file from build.xml and reenter that call every time the

build.xml file is generated?

examples of what i need to do:
- call rmic on several classes
- create multiple jars from my source directory by package
- use a custom manifest with the jar command so that some classes are
tagged as beans

As a start I would use a generated build.xml file that I would then modify.
To avoid the file to be overriden on generation set custom=true in
build.properties.

For your case of multiple jar, you may consider each jar content in a
separate source directory and add the appropriate line in the
build.properties.

If you think more flexibility should/can/must be added, enter a PR.
