Although this is client side code, it is already in its own separate project, so doesn't get any special client-side treatment other than this gif bundling within the jar which is just done using patternset rules, so nothing special within build.xml. My jnlp is manually edited and managed and my deployment scripts copy the jar to the appropriate place for java web start access.

So, you have a separate client side project... I think that is a good way of handling it, I also keep my client side stuff separate. However, I don't understand then the ant build confusion. Is your client side project a WOLips project, or just a standard Java project? Or an ant based Java project? Also, where are those .gif resources located? In which project I mean...

A WOLips project. The .gif resources were in the same folder as the .java files.

Yeah, that's what I thought. I guess that can be tricky, as the desired results (for a client app, as opposed to a WO server app) are different. I use a standard Java app project for my client stuff, and the FatJar plugin to generate the end product jar, and the manifest file and all. I also have all sorts of resources in my source tree, and no problems bundling them all into a jar. However, in client projects I only rely on the incremental builder (combined with FatJar), no ant.

If your client side project is a WOLips project, may I ask why? How do you have it set up?

Probably for no good reason, just copying processes used with other non-client projects. At least the patternset stuff was useful in allowing me to include the gifs in the jars.

Hm, I never tried doing that. Just always used Java projects with added client side libs.
