Hello. I am looking for information about the Web Project builders. These include:

WebClasspathBuilder
Java Builder
J2EEProjectValidator
DeploymentDescriptorValidator
Validation
Structured Document and Model Builder

Can you please point me to some documentation that discuss what each of these builders do?

Regards,
~Justin

Justin,

Sorry, there isn’t any documentation as they’re simply part of our implementation, not user modifiable features. Here’s a one-liner on each:
WebClasspathBuilder – Updates the web classpath when changes are detected to WEB-INF/lib among others
Java Builder – Eclipse’s builder that compiles your Java files
J2EEProject Validator – Checks deployment descriptors and marks errors in them
Validation – Editor content validators (JSP, XML, etc). Marks syntax / sematic errors on save. Like Java Builder but for other file types
Structured Document and Model Builder – Creates the ‘source model’ that the open editors work against
