Description Pascal Rapicault CLA 2005-06-01 09:49:27 EDT
In eclipse 3.1, the creation of a releng style build process requires the
creation of a builder: a build.properties and a customTarget.xml

The customTarget is here to:
- delegate the assembly phases and the package phases to the scripts that have
been generated 
- control the name of the archive
- control the feature to build

Messing with most of those things is pretty meaningless for people, and I think
that the following improvements could be done:
- have customTargets always refer to the same filename, and have the script
generator write scripts with a fixed name.
- make the name of the feature to build customizable through a property

This will limit all changes to the build.properties, simplifying the story.
