I know Chuck has his own build.xml's, but I use the 100% stock build.xml and never touch it. The goal, for me, is to have the stock build.xml do the right thing. Additionally, if it's not modified, it makes it easy to upgrade to future WOLips-recommended build.xml's.
So my answer to your questions is, generally speaking, use the recommended wolips project layout, use the stock build.xml, and you never should have to even consider the questions that you're asking. As far as direct answers: one defines the patterns for Resources, the other for WebServerResources (as you would expect). you're cutting out the important part of build.xml in your email though -- you're showing the root tag, but not its children. that's just saying what the patternset files interpret relative to (which is ".", or project root). the patternset files then specify precisely which files should be considered Resources vs WebServerResources. the definition of this is pretty simple if you're using fluffy bunny. as far as editing build.xml, you can do whatever you want. my personal desire is to never touch them. as far as what should be in resources.include.patternset, this is defined by your particular project layout choices. if you're following the recommended guidelines, you should be able to just make a blank project and copy over the examples, but the stock one is: Components/**/*.wo/**/* Components/**/*.api Resources/**/* Also, that statement from Apple is the worst possible wording. They should be saying "Apple does not provide support for WebObjects on 10.6 server" not "WebObjects is not supported on 10.6 server". The term "support" is overloaded to mean vastly different things depending on which interpretation you choose. ms On Nov 18, 2009, at 10:57 AM, Baiss Eric Magnusson wrote: > > I have tracked a lot of the issues to the <woproject> group in the > WOLips/Eclipse project. > > For one, when I get into the case of the page rendered with WebObject tags in > place it's because the <.WO>'s have been loaded into the WebServerResources > path. > > There's too much I don't understand about <woproject> and <build.xml>. > > 1) What is the purposeful difference between > <Resources/resources.include.patternset> and > <WebServerResources/resources.include.patternset> in <woproject>? > > 2) Is <build.xml> generated at project creation and then meant to be hand > edited?
