[Dltk-dev] IScriptBuilder/IBuildParticipant questions

hello all -

  i was wondering if someone could explain the direction that is being taken with the IBuildParticipant and associated interfaces that have been added to 'org.eclipse.dltk.validators.core' and the different between implementing an IScriptBuilder interface.

  i'd like to add compiler support to my plugin (ie, 'perl -c') - i started looking into implementing an IScriptBuilder, but it also seems that i could implement an IBuildParticipant as well, but that is controlled by the ValdatorRuntime, which itself is an implementation of an IScriptBuilder, so these things are all related.

  perhaps there should be something like a 'BuilderRuntime' that controlled IBuildParticipants, and the ValidatorRuntime would control IValidatorParticipants. things like compiling, task tag parsing, etc would be executed by the BuilderRuntime and anything that serves to validate source would be executed by the ValidatorRuntime, both would run as part of an auto build and the validators could still be run independently.
