[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBoss Build System] - Why do I need to import the whole &tools module?

[ovidiu.feodorov@jboss.com]

It seems that all I need in order to use jbossbuild with my project is tools/etc/jbossbuild/tasks.xml and toold/lib/jbossbuild.jar (and tools/etc/buildmagic/aliases.ent, it is required by jbossbuild but they it is useless to me, so it's just sitting there to make jbossbuild happy).

I copied all these files over and imported in SVN and everything works fine.

However, http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=ExampleBuildThirdparty advises to import the whole "tools" module, which contains a lot of useless buildmagic junk and then some.

Is there any reason I should import the whole "tools" module instead of just copying jbossbuild.jar?

How active do you predict jbossbuild will be in the future? Do you foresee the need of a lot of jbossbuild.jar updates?
