I'm curious whether there are other Nutch developers out there are using Eclipse (I've got 3.0 on Mac OS X 10.3), and if so, if/how they configure things to leverage the Ant build while still being able to edit/build/debug source files using Eclipse.

I searched the archives, and found a post by Jason Tang where he said that "Eclipse works fine!", but nothing else. I'm wondering how he (and others) have configured things to be able to modify, then build/debug Lucene, Nutch, and custom plug-ins.

I'm asking here first, in case somebody has an existing configuration that works. If this isn't something that anybody does, then I'll re-post to the Eclipse developer list.

Thanks to Jeff & Isabel for their feedback.

The problem I'm running into now is that I'll modify some Lucene code, then start a debugging session. Eclipse correctly fires up the Ant build to recreate the JAR, but it appears to have a cached copy of the source code if I've done a previous debugging session involving that same source file. I have to quit & relaunch Eclipse or manually re-attach the source to the JAR to get things in sync again.

I realize this isn't a Nutch-specific development issue, so I'll try on the Eclipse list.

Thanks again,
