This Archive Builder project provides an Eclipse plug-in compatible with Eclipse 3.2.2. The current implementation includes the following functionalities :
* An export wizard which creates the Archive Builder XML file that specify project archives;
* The Archive Builder XML file can be modify through a dialog (accessed via the export wizard or via the XML file context menu). What this dialog permit to do is :
- add archives
- add folders to the archives
- add resources to the folders : the user can easily add project libraries, project folders using a browser.
- add filters on the resources : the user can give an expression to describe which files should be added an which files should not be added.
- specify how libraries will be added to the archives : only copying the library or merging the library with the archive.
- specify order of the archives, folder and resources.
When the Archive Builder XML file is written, the user interface provides a context menu in the Eclipse Project Explorer view to launch the build of all the archives (in the order detailed in the Archive Builder XML file) or the build of only one archive. The current implementation use ANT to build the archives.
The advantage of this plug-in beside writing a ANT file is that :
* you don't have to write exactly the paths of the resources : you can browse for it an the plug-in will write the exact path for you, so it prevents you from misspelling paths;
* you can do everything using the interface, you don't have any XML manual configuration so you don't need lots of skills to use it.
