Re: [dsdp-mtj-dev] Symbol Set definition from antenna

[Feng.Wang@xxxxxxxxxx]

Hi Christian,

1. Now we keep auto-generated symbols
(generated from device properties and Libs) in project scope. 
2. I will remove the auto-generate symbols
function (add by Diego in MTJ0.9) when user import device. This means that
auto-generated symbols will not store in workspace scope.
3. I keep workspace level Symbol Set
Define function as it is. This means user can manually define a group of
Symbol Set in workspace level, and choose one Symbol Set for a Mitlet project.

So, for each Midlet project, user will
have a group of auto-generated symbol set(can also modify manually) and
one user manually defined symbol set.

For workspace level Symbol Set import/export/duplicate,
I think it's useful. I will open a bug to record this requirement, but
I am not sure if I can add this function in 0.9.1.
For project leval Symbol Set, because
it can be aotu-generated, plus user modify, I don't think import/export/duplicate
are quite necessary. But may be nice to have.

In EclipseME, it used to be possible to set the symbols
on the project 
properties.  I haven't looked to see if it is still there on MTJ or
maybe it morphed?

I like the idea of having import, export and duplicate options for the
symbol definitions.  That seems nicely consistent with the rest of
the 
functionality.
