Hello NG,
I'm not sure if this has been discussed before, but I didn't find
anything after searching the NG archive.
Ant build scripts are created (in 3.0) via PDE Tools > Create Ant Script.
A build.xml file will be created including some tasks relying on the
version number of the plugin. So far, so good.
When updating the plugin (for instance from version 1.0.0 to 1.0.1) I
need to recreate the build script (because of the hard-coded version
numbers in it). But what do I do with custom ant targets which need
to be executed when building my plugin (TARGETS, not TASKS!, for
instance executing javacc) I would like to add them via the Ant Editor
to the generated build.xml, but I can't because everytime the version
of the plugin increases they will be overwritten.
For me there are several questions open:
1) Is it possible to mark custom targets as "user-defined, so don't
touch them"?
2) If 1) is not possible, is there a way to edit the build.xml-template
which is used to create build files?
3) If 2) is also not possible, what is the best way to integrate custom
targets into the build system?
Best regards,
Andreas Rummler
