    Hi!

    Where can I find information about the different build styles WOLips offers:

    1. WOProject Build (configured in the preferences)
    1.1 Ant
    1.2 External tool

    2. Incremental (activated in a project properties, replaces WOProject build)

    3. Target builder (activated by creating a targets.plist file and chosing WOLips -> update Target Builder from the conextual menu)

    I have read the help pages on the subject. After several months of use of WOLips I have a pretty good idea about how how the Ant build works. I also appreaciate its flexibility as I have customized my build.xml files to: do an install build by default, run EOGenerator, create signed JAR files for use with JavaClient,...

    As doing a complete WOLips build of projects takes some time and is often not needed until I actually want to test my code, I disable WOLips building using the (+)/(-) buttons so that the build is not done every time Eclipse updates my class files.

    I however don't see the advantages of running WOLips as an external tool.

    I can even less imagine what the incremenatl build is about. It also seems to be about performance during development, but I don't see what it does beyond what Eclipse does when WOLips is temporarily disabled using the (-) button.

    Pierre.
