[news.eclipse.tools] Solutions for Eclipse

["Marc Chamberlin" <marcc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Has anyone thought about, or is considering adding, the concept of Solutions
to Eclipse. I have a situation where I am writing code for multiple target
Java VMs. And I have packages which are used in more than one target VM. It
would be nice to be able to say, that if I am wanting to export code to
target A, then build the package(s) set a, with JRE a, and if I want to
export code to target B, then build the packages(s) set b, with JRE b
etc...

I know I can control which VM to use in building packages, on a per package
basis, but this is not good enough when one has a package that needs to be
built, that is to be exported to different targets with different VMs.
