Robbie Gemmell commented on QPID-3181:
--------------------------------------
Looks good :)
One tiny niggle; I realise it's just a comment for possible future extension,
but it would be good to get rid of the hard coded path within the in the
'eclipse-project' target if possible?

> Project: Qpid
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Ant Build System
> Reporter: Keith Wall

> For those who use Eclipse and prefer to have the Qpid Java components in
> separate Eclipse projects know that there is much manual effort required to
> import the projects, set up source paths, class-paths, and establish
> dependencies between projects. This has been discussed on the dev-list. I
> know I can spend up to half an hour getting the manual setup done.
> I've written an extension to the build system that uses
> http://ant-eclipse.sourceforge.net/ to create the Eclipse .project and
> .classpath files automatically for each of the Java components (broker,
> common, client etc). The new targets make use of the existing properties
> used by the Ant build process: source folders come from ${module.src} etc,
> classpaths from ${module.libs} etc and the project dependencies are computed
> from automatically ${module.depends} so there is no new configuration to
> maintain.
> There is still a single *manual step* required within Eclipse (to create a
> linked source from broker, common, client and broker-plugins-access-control
> projects to their auto-generated code source folder beneath build/scratch) as
> Ant Eclipse does not yet support the creation of linked-sources, but after
> this is done you have a fully imported Qpid with zero errors :).
> I will put together a Wiki page to provide instructions.
