Inside the JBuilder OpenTools API
Chapter 25 - The Build System

Previous   Next   Listings

The BuildNumber example demonstrates how to add functionality to JBuilder's build system. It automatically updates a version number and timestamp in a build number file within the project. It was written by Joi Ellis.

Due to extensive changes to the build system in JBuilder 7, the original tool only works in the earlier versions, while the updated tool is available here.
