Description John Bossom

Presently, this feature based customBuildCallbacks.xml provides hooks
for pre and post gather.bin.parts.

I have a situation where I want to perform a custom task before any of the
plugins associated with the feature are compiled, hence, it is too late
to perform this custom task during pre.gather.bin.parts.

Obviously the solution would be to perform the task in the postGenerate
customTargets.xml callback for the whole build.

However, being able to perform the custom step within the feature callback
would provide a nice clean break. i.e. the feature provides the steps to build itself and can be removed or added from a larger build easily.

Cheers,

John.

Mass change for PDE Build bugs tagged with "helpwanted". PDE build is not actively enhanced, hence I close these bugs as wontfix. Please reopen if you want to contribute a patch.
