Hi,
The only problem that I can see with this is that if a framework is
not installed on the machine then the project can't be built as
Eclipse will complain of build path problems (missing jar file). So
if project B depends on project A, then project A must be installed
before B can be built even though a current version of A exists in the
workspace. I don't see any elegant way to handle this.
This also won't work at present on OS X as the "WebObjects Frameworks"
class path container is non-functional. There was some correspondence
on this last week. We will check and see if Ulrich has already added
a bug for this and will add it if not.
