Re: [jdt-ui-dev] Proposal for a Java Packager export wizard

By the way, for WiX there are already two CQs in IPZilla:

We would like to add a Java Packager export wizard to the IDE.

This export plugin would be based on the new Packager API, available in Oracle JDK as of JDK 8u20. 
It would export and package all resources required to run an application, into an installable, self-contained, application bundle. 

The immediate benefits of the Java Packager wizard would be the following:
 * provide an easy way to generate from the IDE an installable/executable version
   of the Java application under development/testing
 * help the developer get familiar with Java Packaging and its various flavors
   and options 

Beyond that, the wizard should ideally also help the developer elaborate automated build instructions.

A draft of wireframes of the proposed UI flow for the Java Packager wizard is on
this wiki: https://wiki.eclipse.org/JDT_UI/Java_Packager
Your questions and feedback are warmly welcome.

I have created a bug report for this feature: 441274. 
Please put any feedback in Bugzilla, so we can keep track of the whole conversation there.

-Simon.
