Description Max Rydahl Andersen CLA 2006-12-14 03:43:30 EST
The Ant outline has "mylar" support, but it would be just as interesting to have a "mylar" focused Ant view since it from there you can easily directly run an ant task (no need for right clicking)

Could you provide a few steps on how you typically use this view?
Comment 2 Max Rydahl Andersen CLA 2006-12-14 18:01:22 EST
Simply open the view and drag/add build.xml files.

From then on I simply select a target and either doubleclick or press the green play button to run it.

That's it; and it is very often the same target or two I run again and again for given tasks.

Need to defer post 2.0 due to focus on APIs and streamlining of core features.
