Description Jesse Glick 2008-11-14 16:48:31 UTC 
Should offer a ProjectConfigurationProvider in autoproject.java.LookupProviderImpl if it can be determined that the
project is using some manner of switchable configurations, e.g. loading a named property file based on the value of some
property.

Alternately, always offer a PCP and implement the configurations directly in the project type, with a customizer panel to

1. Create and delete named configurations.

2. Set Ant properties and values in a specific configuration.

Then AntActions and ActionProviderImpl would simply pass these extra properties to the Ant process when running it.

Perhaps the configuration should also be able to control which target is run when a given action is invoked. While a
single Ant target can always delegate to other targets based on the value of a property, this is awkward in Ant.

This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
