source refresh after running ant task [message #251955]

Mon, 10 March 2008 09:45

Hello,
I have an ant task that generates code (using JAXB's xjc task). After the
task is run I need to refresh the source tree, to that the newly generated
classes are picked up. Is there any way to do the refresh from within the
ant task?

Thanks,
Zohar

How are you invoking the Ant script? If you're launching it from inside
Eclipse, it uses a Launch configuration and you can edit that (via the
External Tools dialog - icon on the toolbar looks like a green circle,
white triangle, and red toolbox) and set it up to automatically refresh
the project after Ant runs.

Hope this helps,
Eric

Hi,
<eclipse.refreshLocal resource="MyProject/MyFolder" depth="infinite"/>

* resource is a resource path relative to the workspace
* depth can be one of the following: zero, one or infinite

The Ant builds needs to run in the same VM as Eclipse itself. See your
launch configuration for this setting.
