Hi, I wrote a custom ProjectHelper a while back which I've been using for some time now. (I use it to make sure my buildfiles are up to date with respect to a template buildfile.) I've also started to play a little bit with Eclipse and their Ant integration. Unfortunately there seem to be quite a few problems with this integration (many related to class loading) which sometimes have workarounds and sometimes not. For example, I couldn't get my ProjectHelper to work at all in Eclipse, so I thought I'd file a bug report against Eclipse. However, since I can't find any documentation documenting the ProjectHelper concept and how it is plugged into Ant (META-INF/services service provider or system property) I'm not sure if the Eclipse Ant integration needs to support ProjectHelpers and if filing a bug report is appropriate.
Therefore my questions: - Is there documentation around for the ProjectHelper other than Javadoc? - Is an "Ant frontend" (like the many IDE integrations) required to support the ProjectHelper feature? Regards, -- knut
