[mkgmap-dev] Need help with build scripts

Thu Jan 30 16:25:24 GMT 2020

The attached patch changes the build process so that the mkgmap\resources\help\en\options is generated. It uses a slightly modified version of Mike Baggaleys program to compute this file with mkgmap\doc\options.txt as input.

My problem:
Up to now the generated file is in the svn repo and Eclipse uses this file when compiling mkgmap while 
ant dist 
first builds the file and then creates a copy of it and uses this copy to build mkgmap.jar.

My problems so far:
- if someone edits mkgmap\resources\help\en\options he will lose his edits when he runs ant 
- if someone uses Eclipse to debug or develop mkgmap the file is not build, probably the same problem in other IDEs

Any hints how to solve this?
