Ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and it will be opened to you.

I use YUICompressor.  This will minify the js and css files in the ${dest.dir} location after the ant build (not the original files obviously).  The mapper here doesn't actually change the filename - the files are minified in place.  This is from the pre-hotness build.xml BTW.

    <target name="js.minify" depends="build.woapp">
        <apply executable="java" parallel="false" force="true" dest="${dest.dir}/${project.name}.woa/Contents/WebServerResources">
            <fileset dir="WebServerResources" includes="**/*.js"/>
            <arg line="-jar"/>
            <arg path="../MySharedFramework/Libraries/yuicompressor-2.3.5.jar"/>
            <srcfile/>
            <arg line="-o"/>
            <mapper type="identity" from="*.js" to="*-min.js"/>
            <targetfile/>
        </apply>
    </target>

    <target name="css.minify" depends="build.woapp">
        <apply executable="java" parallel="false" force="true" dest="${dest.dir}/${project.name}.woa/Contents/WebServerResources">

            <arg line="-jar"/>
            <arg path="../MySharedFramework/Libraries/yuicompressor-2.3.5.jar"/>

            <arg line="-o"/>

            <targetfile/>
        </apply>
    </target>

Hi,
I've never done any scripting via Ant but I get the vague impression that I should be able to trigger a call to minify any _javascript_ or CSS files being built in a WebObjects Eclipse project. Does anyone have any experience doing this or could maybe recommend a good Ant tutorial for me?

Thanks.
