Does anyone actually like these properties? I've been hacking build.xml files
and they are beginning to drive me crazy.
modules/accessibility/build.xml contains the following for creating the src
jar:
<jar
destfile="${hy.jdk}/jre/lib/boot/${hy.accessibility.packaging.jarname}-src.jar">
<fileset dir="${hy.accessibility.src.main.java}" />
which IMNSHO would be easier to read/maintain if it was:
<jar destfile="${hy.jdk}/jre/lib/boot/accessibility-src.jar">
<fileset dir="src/main/java" />
I also notice that they are used rather erratically. For example, the
equivalent luni-src.jar creation ant code only uses one of them.
I'd like to get rid of them or, if appropriate, use more straightforward
property names such as ${jarname} since the hy.accessibility.packaging
parts are all rather obvious from the context in which they are used -
i.e. in a harmony module called accessibility building a jar file.
Sorry for the rant but I've got quite a bit build.xml cleanup to do
and assuming others agree (or don't care) I'd like to make them more
readable at the same time.

Mark.
