#17 Howto enable pdf build in a Non-LaTeX Project

[Bastl]

Hi

I have a docs directory for Latex documentation in my java project and want to build pdf. How can i enable that?

I can launch the LaTeX Editor, and building latex and dvi works out of the box, but there is no Property-Page for "LaTeX-Project-Properties" as in the LaTeX-Projects.

Quick answers would be appreciated, since i have to explain how to use it to a bunch of students in a couple of hours ...

BTW: Great project. I had a look at it one or two years ago, and you made great progress! Thinking about to switch from vim once again ... :-)

Seb.

Hi,
I am afraid that this answer comes to late for your students. Normally texlipse automatically adds latex nature to the project if it contains tex files (at least after you first opened it). I tried it with a simple Java project and it worked: I have added a folder "tex" and created a file "test.tex". After editing I could change the Latex properties to pdf build in the project properties of the Java project.
