I'm investigating whether Eclipse would help streamline my Ant-based XML/XSLT course content processing system - inital signs are promising, but I'm stuck on something rather annoying:
I've set up an Ant configuration like this:
Buildfile: ${folder_prompt:workspace_loc:/SCE (svn)/sce/courses/}/build.xml
Arguments: ${string_prompt:Build type}
...as my system has a directory of build scripts (mainly ant & XSLT), and many courses, each with their own build file, like this (simplified for clarity):
sce
* build-tools
* courses
* course-a
* build.xml
* (course files)
* course-b
* build.xml
* (course files)
This works (allowing me to choose course-a or course-b, and the build runs), but the folder_prompt dialog is shown multiple times when editing the configuration.
The folder_prompt ("Please input a value for workspace_loc") is shown 11 times just from clicking "External tools configurations" before showing the configuration dialog. Each switch between configuration tabs provokes at least one more folder_prompt.
When running the build, dialogs are shown for folder_prompt, string_prompt, then folder_prompt again.
Can anyone suggest how to stop the folder_prompt appearing repeatedly?
Cheers,
Dave.
