Re: [platform-ant-dev] M4 milestone plan update
|
As per my last comment on the Bug 25982
(http://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=25982), I'm now suggesting that
instead of using a checkbox tree viewer, we just switch to being
selection-based. The interaction required to run a target would thus be
reduced to selecting the target(s), right clicking, and choosing "Run".
