Cool. I'm still contemplating the way
forward. I think the experiment with Andmore2 has been
a good success. Gradle integration isn't that hard and
I think we can move towards interfacing to the command
line tools for at least build and launch features,
maybe more, to reduce our dependencies on the external
jars.
Since the amount of code I have is pretty small,
I think I can bring that back into Andmore1 and
clean up whatever duplication we have. Ideally, we
support multiple build systems, including the
existing craziness and add in gradle and enable
maven. I'll be restructuring the New wizards to make
that more flexible, and to add in more templates to
match what you get with Studio.
As I mentioned to everyone I talked to about it
here at EclipseCon, having Android tooling is
incredibly important to the reputation and prestige
of Eclipse. I don't think I can get work time for
this, yet, but I will continue to plug away at it
with my other personal open source work and keep the
momentum going as much as I can.
Doug.
