    Hi All,

    Once again I'm not sure if this is a bug or me being stupid. I'm kind
    of hoping it is a bug... :-)

    I've created a framework project by importing an PB.Project. Part of
    the original project was a sub-project named Tests.sub-proj. It used
    to contain .java files and resources, now it only contains resources.
      So far, so good.

    There are two types of resources in that sub-project, .plist and
    .strings files. Both need to end up in Framework.framework/Resources.
      By default, only the .strings files are copied to Resources. OK, I
    thought, I'll just add this
    <include name="**/*.plist"/>
    to <resources></resources>. When I did that, the files did get
    copied, but then ended up in
    Framework.framework/ResourcesTests.sub-proj, which is not what I'd
    intended. I'm thinking that this might be a bug related to
    localization of .plist files, as discussed here:
    http://www.objectstyle.org/woproject/ant/localized.html

    To work around this, I've added the above include to the copy.strings
    target and made it a dependency for the build and install targets.
    This works, but it copies the .strings files twice and I'm concerned
    with what it might do to localization.

    In summary, some questions:
    1. Is the handling of .plist files in <resources> described above a bug?

    2. If not, what should I be doing?

    3. What is the copy.strings task intended for with respect to the
    resources attribute of the woframework task?

    Cheers,

    Chuck
