Description tusharvjoshi 2009-07-25 05:13:46 UTC
There shall be a feature which will allow me creating a library for some library XYZ and to add JAR files into that
library from some folder like $XYZ_HOME/lib

Where XYZ_HOME can be either a IDE Variable or a System Property or Environment Variable.

When the project is copied from source control to another workstation and between different platforms these relative
paths based on VARIABLES will minimize the configuration of the project.
