Recently, I had to build an add-in component for an existing system. My sources do not include a "Main" class. Instead, the main class is a class in a library that my project depended on. In order to allow me to use a library class as a Main class, I had to open project.properties and set main.class by hand. It would be nice if the IDE would allow this without having to edit a properties file.
It alrady works. You may write the name of the class into the name field. The only prblem is that these classes are not shown in the combo box. Will track this as enhancement for adding them. Changing summary accordingly.
