What youend up with is Forrest embedded in Eclipse. If you don't know how eclipse works it may seem a little confusing as there are lots of hooks in the Eclipse platform being used. Might be easier to start from the forrest.sh|bat script in that case. However, if you do know how Eclipse works you may find it useful to look at http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/forrest/trunk/tools/eclipse/src/org/apache/forrest/eclipse/job/ForrestRunner.java?rev=153349&view=markup This is the clasee that does the work of setting up the classpath needed and so on. > After I'm finished, I'll try (if time permits...) to > summarize my experience into a document about how to embed Forrest in > other software, so that you will be able to put it on your site, for > others that will need to do the same (I imagine it might be useful to > someone...). That would be very much appreciated, I am sure you will not be the only user needing to do this (in fact I know you aren't) Ross
