I agree with your assessment on this. it is very similar to the way that we change out the JavaME libraries when the target device is altered. This is a non-trivial feature to add to the system and definitely needs to be part of a major release.
I am thinking how to define source folders for each configuration. I am afraid JDT don't support this feature. So we can
1. Set source folders information in configuration meta data.
2. Only current active configuration's source folders are JDT Java source folder. Other source folders are set to normal folder.
3. When active configuration switch, source folders switch too.
4. Modify Antenna build files exporting feature.
5. When packaging, go through every configurations, switch source folders, build source code, and copy JAD and JAR files.
I guess only if configurations share some source folders, put them in one project make sense; otherwise, user can create separate projects.
I think it's better to add this feature in feature release, if it is important.

If it is important, and not currently in the roadmap, then it seems that we should put it there. Would this be a good 1.1 feature?

Subject: Re: [dsdp-mtj-dev] Separate resources folders for multi-target buildand distribution
This has been in the conceptual design for quite some time (back in EclipseME days). I agree that it is an important piece of functionality.

One more issue what I need in MTJ.
Developer of limited devices many times require to use different resource folders for each configuration.
My suggestion is
1) define default resource folders for project (this choice is currently available)
2) possibility to define resource folders for each device configuration.
what you think ?
similar problem was:
