Is this a solo app? If you know the resources at compile time, you
could write a little script to transform your dataset description
from arbitrary xml to lzx resource descriptions. Depending on how
much automation you need, an ant task could invoke the script.
Say you've got your dataset specified like this in mydataset.xml
<images>
<myniceimage file="foo/bar/nicey.jpg" />
...
</images>
Then do something like this:
sed -e "s/myniceimage/resource name=\"myresource\"/" -e s/file/
source/ < mydataset.xml > mydataset.lzx
That would get the resources compiled in; a bit more regexp magic
would give the resources unique names.
