Yes, thats exactly what I've done.

(1) To do so, import the site contents as a project in the workspace. (You'll need to create a .project file so you can import it.). (2) Right click on the project -> Properties --> Builders.
(3) Click New on the Builders page and select Ant Build and click finish.
(4) An Edit launch configuration properties wizard will appear and give it a name like "SiteBuilder".
(5) Select the build.xml file from  the project using "Browse Workspace"
(6) Select the base directory using Browse Workspace (simply select you imported project) (7) Optionaly select the refresh tab and enable "Refresh resources upon completion" (8) Then select targets for Manual Build as well as AutoBuild. Set the default target "site".
(9) Hit finish.

Thats it, now make any change to any file in the project, hit save, and the site ant goal will automatically run. You can also granulize this by going back into the configuration page and select the Build Options to configure to only trigger the ant builder on a particular working set (i.e only run when resources in ./xdocs/ are changed).

Hope that that works out for you.

Sachin.

Yeah I'll give myself a -1 on that. :) Using eclipse now. Works much better since it automatically triggers the ant builder every save.

That's interesting. Have you set it up specially so that Eclipse triggers the builder? Would you mind to post the steps?
