Hi Alex, The compiler that has been written is a dropin replacement for java.
PDEc will allow for auto discovery of class path by figuring out the plugin dependencies by looking at the manifest. What is also special about it is that the compiler can look at jars and folders inside jars for the class path. -- Ketan On 1/5/09, Alex Boisvert <boisvert @intalio.com> wrote: > Hi Antoine, > > Nice plugin!
