I have some pde plugins - which form an rcp app - which rely on several
other large non plugin / osgi projects.
However, all of these projects are developed side by side in eclipse as
eclipse java projects.
At the moment this is a pain.
Basically, there's an umbrella plugin project which has jars (and all
dependencies) for the server side stuff in its classpath (copied under its
target dir) - and it exports everything. The other, 'real' plugin projects
then depend on this umbrella project - thus getting the server side stuff
(and dependencies) in to the CP.
So, to pick up a change I've just made to a "server side" (in my case,
non-pde project) in a UI (pde) project requires:
- build the project (e.g. maven)
- get all the jars under the umbrella plugin's target directory (e.g using
the maven dependency plugin)
- refresh / rebuild the ui project
What I'd like to be able to do is make a change in a non-pde project, and
have it picked up automatically in all the pde projects requiring it (much
like the standard "required projects on the build path" approach for non
pde projects).
I've seen some "convert everything to a bundle" approach - but Im not sure
how workable this would be. There are hundreds of required 3rd party jars.
Any ideas on potential options?
It doesn't matter so much if the build / copy approach still occurs for a
"full release" - I just want to make it faster to develop and test the rcp
app in my eclipse environment.
Thanks in advance,
Dave
