I think if you are going to focus on falcon and want to use eclipse junit, the current setup is just fine. The other option, in case you need to focus on the sdk side of falcon, is the one I've mentioned before. It's nothing really fancy, just creating environment variables in a different way. It just needs proper documentation ;) Gordon Smith <gosm...@adobe.com>: Most of the time when making Falcon pass unit tests, I'm changing Falcon > code, not SDK code. 'ant clean eclipse' for Falcon takes only 8 seconds on > my machine. I have no problem with having multiple targets though. You're doing most of the heavy-lifting here, and as I understand your time is quite limited, so let's not waste it over-complicating things for you. I'll add a secondary target and some documentation when I have the chance. I think this other setup is more in line with what Alex is looking for, but in this stage in Falcon's life is probably more important to get the development workflow simple. 2012/12/8 Gordon Smith <gosm...@adobe.com> > It is unacceptable to have to configure every debug config you create.
