Re: [orbit-dev] Confirmation of need for "ouput..=."?

[Thomas Watson <tjwatson@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I think this is needed by PDE-BUILD to allow our binary (class folders) to be used for compilation at build time. (See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=99286 and https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=146042)

I still think we will have issues in PDE/BUILD if we remove this entry.

With the new M4-ish Eclipse IDE, there is better checking of build.properties values. 

One of those "errors" says 

The folder "." does not exist in the workspace 

where ever we have 
output..=. 

in our build.properties files. 

But we do still need those output directives there, right?

I think this was to work around some PDE bug, but I couldn't find reference to it. 

Anyone know if its still a bug, and we still need the work around? 

I mostly wanted to make sure Orbit committers didn't start removing them, since after all, Eclipse says its an error! :) 

Unless its ok to remove now?!
