Ulrich,
Because of the way our various developers and development process
work (we hire lots of student help, restrict server access, and
deploy at announced times to a remotely administered server), I think
adding resources to the project is the way we have to go.
Editing the PB.project file is relatively easy, and I can always run
PBWO to get an example. For example:
WOAPP_RESOURCES =
(
Main.api,
SimpleTransformation.xsl
);
WEBSERVER_RESOURCES =
(
img
);
For build.xml, am I right that I will need the following:
<wsresources dir=".">
<include name="img/*"/> <!-- all files in img directory -->
<exclude name="**/*.woa/**"/>
</wsresources>
<resources dir=".">
<include name="Properties"/>
<include name="**/*.eomodeld/"/>
<include name="**/*.d2wmodel"/>
<include name="**/*.wo/"/>
<include name="**/*.api"/>
<include name="**/*.strings"/>
<include name="**/*.xsl"/> <!-- any .xsl files -->
<exclude name="**/*.eomodeld~/"/>
<exclude name="**/*.woa/**"/>
</resources>
And I would guess that this would be another way to specify:
<wsresources dir=".">
<include name="**/*.gif"/> <!-- all gifs -->
<include name="**/*.jpg"/> <!-- all jpgs -->
<exclude name="**/*.woa/**"/>
</wsresources>
I find much to like about Eclipse/WOLips, but the necessity of
learning Ant along with the IDE makes the learning curve steeper than
ProjectBuilder, IMO.
thanks for the help,
-- Paul
