NAME

jh_setupenvironment - Prepares a build environment to compile an eclipse feature.

SYNOPSIS

jh_setupenvironment [debhelper options] [--pde-build-dir=dir] [copy [...]]

DESCRIPTION

jh_setupenvironment is a javahelper program that handles creating an environment for building an eclipse feature. It does not setup an orbit dir (use jh_generateorbitdir for that). It will copy files specified in debian/eclipse.environment as well as those given on command line into the environment dir. If no files are given per command line and the environment file is not present (or is empty), it will default to "org.eclipse.*"

FILES

debian/eclipse.environment

List of file- and directory glob patterns to copy into the build environment.

OPTIONS

--pde-build-dir=dir

Specifies where the environment should be or is placed.

--clean

If passed, jh_setupenvironment will clean up the build environment. When cleaning jh_setupenvironment will not record itself in the debhelper log to avoid confusing dh, when it has to use the log to trace where it was.

EXAMPLE

  jh_setupenvironment org.eclipse.* debian/*.properties

Will clone all files and folders starting with "org.eclipse." and all property files in the debian-folder and put them into the environment.

SEE ALSO

debhelper(7)

This program is a part of javahelper and uses debhelper as backend. There are also tutorials in /usr/share/doc/javahelper.
