[Opensource] Eclipse and Expresso

[Stephen Owens]

Agreed Kris,
 
I've done the setup as specified by the doc but I'm also not happy with
it. It occurred to me the other day reading through an Eclipse FAQ that
a different way to do it MIGHT be, I haven't tried it yet, to setup a
project in Eclipse just for Expresso and set the project directory for
that project to your Expresso directory. Then you might be able to set
up other projects and reference the Expresso project from those
projects. I'm putting a bunch of facts together, like I know you can
root Eclipse projects elsewhere than in the standard eclipse folder, and
I think you can reference projects from projects. If you get a chance to
try this out before I do please post back to the group and let me know
if it works. If I try it out I'll post results here.
 
Regards,

I want to give eclipse a spin with Expresso and checked out the document
on our jcorporate site which explains how to do this but I'm not
satisfied with how this is done, so I'm asking the group of those users
of Eclipse did you setup your Expresso project as the document states?
In particular I don't like how you have to copy some of the expresso
code into the eclipse WEB-INF/src directory.  Now I have to keep both
directories in sync if I care to ever get updates from Expresso and if I
ever want to contribute back which I do.
Thanks 
Kris
