Design an API for resources (how to represent a resource, its type, etc.), transformation of output definition into a resource definition.
The remanining part of this API is to make it possible to use resources and sources in Use Dependencies. Moving to milestone 3, reassigning to Chris.
Must-have features for milestone3, have impact on APIs (at least potential).
A full description of the support proposed for use dependencies can be viewed at http://projects.netbeans.org/proposals/buildusedependencies/BuildUseProposal.html. Since use dependencies express inputs to a build target and inputs can be used in multiple build target specific ways, the projects infrastructure will provide a support class providing an algorithm to detect changes since the last invocation. This should provide help in providing useful compilation upToDate implementations.
added API keyword
Adding a dependency on 23284 as the input list should be stored in a private setting.
This change completes the timestamp check as well as the use dependency api.
