-----------------------------------

fyi, not sure what approach is better but we recently added eclipse support to zookeeper in ZOOKEEPER-539 via

http://sourceforge.net/projects/ant-eclipse/

> The soon-to-be-attached patch lets you work on Avro from within Eclipse, if that's your style.
> I've added the following to the README:
> {quote}
> USING ECLIPSE
> To use Eclipse, use the "ant eclipse" target to trigger generating a .classpath
> file, and also trigger compilation (to pull in the maven dependencies, etc.)
> You must also make sure that your avro checkout directory is "avro".  You
> should then be able to create an Eclipse project pointed to your checkout, and
> run the unit tests from Eclipse's runner.
> Note that the "Eclipse Builder" is configured to compile twice: once with
> Eclipse's built-in compiler, and another time with ant.  Eclipse is happier
> this way, though the classpath is configured to ignore Eclipse's compilation.
> {quote}
> Everything here is incomprehensible XML boilerplate.  There's a new ant target to create the .classpath file.
> I'm able to run all but the interop test that requires a server from within Eclipse.  I welcome other Eclipse users trying this out to see if it works.
