[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-4268) Provide a way to merge files generated by exporters.

Provide a way to merge files generated by exporters. ----------------------------------------------------- Key: JBIDE-4268 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-4268 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Hibernate Affects Versions: 3.1.0.M1 Reporter: Dmitry Geraskov Assignee: Max Rydahl Andersen Priority: Blocker Fix For: 3.2.next Attachments: exporter_mergeMethod_patch.txt, exporter_mergeMethod_patch2.txt, exporter_mergeMethod_patch3.txt, ide_patch.txt, patch.txt, patch2.txt Now exporter replaces previous file version. We need to call merging when file which will be generated already exists. The best place for such injection is ArtifactCollector as developer can easily specify subclass of this class and set it to exporter. We need only to provide such API. I' going to add method merge(...) to ArtifactCollector class and call it when necessary in template producer.
