Personally, I really LIKE the FTP/WebDAV method... And it fits well with Rob's write local/publish remote best practices idea.
However, there's a bug in the FTP tool that will result in an error message that reads: Site Missing for {ftp URL} I've traced it back to the FTP plugin not writing configuration information for a second site, possibly a second FTP URL at the same IP? That's where I've run into it the worst. While I don't have time to actually get into dealing with the Java to fix it, I do know what the problem is an am working on finding a workaround. The issue is that it creates a several-character signature that links the Eclipse project to the FTP URL, and I haven't found a reliable means to detect/edit it and insert it into the config file. The config file for the FTP/WebDAV plugin is at: \eclipse\workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.team.core\.targetSites The signature for the site is a mix of null characters and other special characters tailed with a 3-letter code... So, I'll let you know when I know more... Laterz, J On Sun, 30 Jan 2005 17:33:02 -0500, Michael T.
