RE: Version 1.3 of jde-ant.el
Cool! Would it be possible to have tab completion available when selecting the build target (when running jde-ant-build, when jde-ant-read-target is on)? The way find-file works?

Re: Version 1.3 of jde-ant.el
Hmmm... that would indeed be nice, but, not being an elisp pro, I'm not quite sure about if/how this could be done. You'd have to parse the output of jde-ant-projecthelp and read the available targets, then integrate this into the emacs expand facility Anyone have any ideas/thoughts on this?

RE: Version 1.3 of jde-ant.el
OK, I'll look into it! It's time for me to stop mooching and do something for JDE (even if it's just a tiny little thing like this)! I'll try to get something by Monday (June 25).

RE: Version 1.3 of jde-ant.el
Title: RE: Version 1.3 of jde-ant.el Perhaps ant -projecthelp could be spawned inside of the beanshell. This would avoid the JVM startup costs. For that matter, maybe ant could always be spawned in the beanshell. The only difficulty I see would be to capture its output properly and display in an *ant* buffer running in compilation-mode. But maybe it isn't all that difficult, just tedious. /Nick -Original Message- From: Knut Wannheden [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Knut Wannheden Sent: Tuesday, June 19, 2001 10:02 AM To: Molitor, Stephen Cc: 'Jason Stell'; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Version 1.3 of jde-ant.el Molitor, Stephen [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Cool!

Re: Version 1.3 of jde-ant.el
I concur, but I don't think we want to couple jde-ant with the Ant XML schema. I would rather delegate to the Ant program. I thought about the possibilty of using beanshell to invoke the Ant program main. This would relieve the cost of starting up an additional VM. However, Ant comes with shell scripts that--I believe--provide some useful/relevant functionality, such as allowing the user to have a .antrc file. I'm reluctant to move/duplicate this functionality to jde-ant, since not everyone using Ant to build projects will be building strictly from JDE (if they even use JDE at all...). Thoughts?
