Hi folks,

I've just submitted a couple of patches to make eclipse WTP configuration file generation work fully - see GRADLE-247. This actually makes the WTP support useful as with it one can now create an empty project with a project
dependency and get a fully working, deployable WTP project at the end.

Very cool. Unfortunately I had no time yet to apply them. I'm off this evening until Sunday. I will try to apply them early next week.


I've also opened an improvement GRADLE-247. There is now a fair amount of code duplication in the eclipse plugins around manipulating a dom4j tree to create xml configuration. As part of GRADLE-247, I think it would be a good idea to encapsulate the dom manipulation in a proper model. This would allow
the following to be easily accomplished:

Read existing configuration into EclipseProject or EclipseWtpConfiguration
-> call addFacet, or addBuilder as required, invoke a save() method.

Does this strike you as a good idea? If so I'll submit some additional
patches.

Definitely.

Cheers,

- Hans
