Plugin compilation

Plugin Development
Hi
I have the source to the ProjectViewer plugin within which I have made a trivial modification.
Could someone advice me on the tools and command directives I need to use to create a new version of the plugin .jar file?
If the existing jar file is over-written with a the newly build version, is it just a case of restarting jEdit to utilize the modified plugin?

many thanks,
Paul

Most of the plugins use Ant to build them.

First you should install Ant.

Second, most of the plugins have a build.xml file in their root directory. This should build the plugin and install it in your plugins jars directory.

You should make sure paths in the build.properties file match up with your system. Then it should be as easy as opening a command prompt, navigating to your plugin's root directory and typing "ant".


Learn from the past. Live in the present. Plan for the future.
