Hello, Our team needs to know how the translation is done from WSAD GUI which manages compiler settings (window/preference/java/compiler) all the way to the java compiler engine. For example, if I change a setting and set something as error (e.g. an unreachable statement), how will WSAD pass a command line argument to the java compiler for the next compile? We need a list of those java compiler command line arguments and a corresponding mappings (in WSAD GUI) and a description of what each one does. Thanks, Mahdad
Compiler preferences UI belong to JDT UI component. For more information on setting the JDT Core options, please read the doc: Help>JDT Plug-in Developer Guide>Programmer's Guide>JDT Core>JDT Core options Doc is reflecting 2.1 state, latest options are listed on javadoc of JavaCore#getDefaultOptions(...). Also note that you can customize options on a per project basis.
Thanks for your reply. I tried this url: http://www.eclipse.org/documentation/html/plugins/org.eclipse.jdt.doc.isv/topics _Guide.html but could not find "JDT Core". Do you have any exact url to the page that you mentioned? Thanks, Mahdad
From an Eclipse SDK, look inside the Help menu: Help>JDT Plug-in Developer Guide>Programmer's Guide>JDT Core>JDT Core options
Thanks again. I don't have Eclipse installed but am using WSAD 5.0. There is no such a path in WSAD Help menu as the one you mentioned. The options under my Help are: Welcome, Cheat Sheets, Help Contents, Software Updates, and About IBM WSAD... And not to mention that WSAD Help search is not that smart.
