[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-2972) Move translatable .properties files from src/ into resources/text/

Move translatable .properties files from src/ into resources/text/ ------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JBIDE-2972 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-2972 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Bug Components: Cleanup Reporter: Sean Flanigan Fix For: 3.0.0.cr1, 3.0.0.GA See http://lists.jboss.org/pipermail/jbosstools-dev/2008-October/002268.html for background, particularly item number 4. If all translatable resources are kept in standard locations, the localization build can be simplified and more reliable. In JBoss Tools, I have identified translatable .properties in the following directories under various ${plugin} dirs: src/main src jbosscore jbossui templates template-src One example is the file /org.jboss.ide.eclipse.archives.core/src/main/org/jboss/ide/eclipse/archives/core/ArchivesCoreMessages.properties but there are similar files in every project. Rather than create a similar jira for each and every project, I'd be happy to do the work myself, with a little help (I haven't done much work with Eclipse plugins): Could someone please confirm what needs be changed to move this file into /org.jboss.ide.eclipse.archives.core/resources/text/org/jboss/ide/eclipse/archives/core/ArchivesCoreMessages.properties and still be available on the classpath for Eclipse and PDE Build and anywhere else important. At the moment, I can think of these changes: 1. add another classpathentry in Eclipse's .classpath (through Eclipse's Java Build Path screen) 2. edit sources.archivescore.jar in build.properties (through Eclipse's Build Configuration editor) Is that all that is needed?
