------------------------------------------
Summary: Eliminate eclipse classpath maintenance -
UpdateEclipseClasspaths - run from sbt
Key: DAFFODIL-1983
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-1983
Project: Daffodil
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Infrastructure
Affects Versions: 2.2.0
Reporter: Michael Beckerle
Fix For: 2.2.0
Every time library versions are updated, the eclipse classpaths in
eclipse-projects must be updated. We have a tool to do this, located in
daffodil-propgen module, (formerly daffodil-lib), but it requires DAFFODIL_ROOT
and so only can be run under eclipse.
Not all developers use eclipse, so there's always this two-part change where
library versions change, then the eclipse classpaths have to be fixed up to
match.
Ideally, we would run this tool from sbt when updateClassifiers is run and we
would thereby completely eliminate the need to maintain the eclipse classpath
files at all. Every time you sbt clean ; sbt updateClassifiers, you need to
refresh all the eclipse projects anyway.
So the task is to run this from sbt as part of updateClassifiers (perhaps), and
eliminate the dependency on DAFFODIL_ROOT.
