Package javax.ide.build Description

The build system interfaces that extension writers need to implement in order to listen for build events.

In general, extension writers implement the BuildListener interface when requesting to be notified of build system events.

IDE service providers must provide a concrete implementation of the BuildSystem interface. The Extension Development Kit (EDK) provides an abstract implementation that IDE services providers should extend: BuildSystem.
