I want to create the Ant build script for my XText plugin. I read through few articles/tutorial for creating Ant script. I came across 2 ways of creating the Ant script automatically:

  1. On plug-in project Right click -> Export -> Ant Buildfiles
  2. Right click on the MANIFEST.MF or build.properties or feature.xml and PDE Tools -> Create Ant Build File.

Could someone let me the difference between the above 2 ways?

    Export...>Ant Buildfiles will generate a build.xml to build your project as a java project. PDE Tools > Create Ant Build File will create an ant file to build your project as a Plug-in Project (using PDE build).
