Hi Dietrich,

Thanks for your response. Actually I have to make plugins out of my xtext project.which i need to do with the help of Ant. I followed some process which is mentioned in xtextcast video. Able to Generate artifacts and compile all the xtend, java classes with Ant script but After that I am not very sure how to make them as plugin. If you have any idea could you please help me out.

Thanks.

Hi,

i dont really see how this is connected to Xtext
- simply package all the stuff to a jar
- or use maven tycho instead of ant
- or use the export -> Deployable Plugins and Fragments Wizard to create a PDE Ant file (as a side effect on the options tab) - I have never used that so hard to give more information on the ant PDE build
