Re: [platform-core-dev] Derived resources

[Szymon Brandys <Szymon.Brandys@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Giorgio,

This is an issue worth investigating and fixing. Maybe it could be stored
as a builder preference,
so each builder could have its own list of derived resources?

Another proposal how to fix it is
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=154089

See also https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=30440

Another idea is:
We could show a dialog after a build with "incoming" files and let user
choose which should be marked as derived.
The dialog could allow the user to choose whether the settings should be
used by default in the project.

Regards

Hi guys

I just subscribed to the ML so I beg your pardon if this ends up being
a FAQ... i searched a bit through the archives and found a few
messages on the topic, but none seems to get to my point...

Which is - do you think it would be possible in some future release to
include in the project descriptor or somewhere inside the ".settings"
directory a list of resources to always consider as derived?

The rationale for this is that if you are building the project with
some external tool (i use maven as a habit) you have to keep on
re-marking the "target" directory as derived to avoid multiple matches
in searches and to keep the xml validator out of there...

What do you think? May I help somehow (ie: if I start working on a
patch for this, will you reject it a priori)?

Cheers,
  Giorgio Gallo

PS: I know i should have posted this as an enhancement request
somewhere... sorry I really don't know anything about your
infrastructure, and http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/platform-core/ does
not have a "report a bug" link...
