66 66  The nested ##frameworks## is a [[FrameworkSet>>WOProject-FrameworkSet]] structure that specifies the names of the WebObjects Frameworks that this application is dependant upon. The jar files from these frameworks will be referenced in varios platform-specific depoyment files (such as CLASSPATH.TXT), and specified in the web.xml classpath if an application is deployed as a servlet. When building a FileSet, path should match up to the "**.framework" directory (no need to match individual JAR files).**

72 +Q: _Kieran Kelleher_
73 +With regards the woapplication task and nested elements, what does the eclipse="true" attribute of the 'frameworks' nested element do?
74 + {{<frameworks dir="ProjectLocal" embed="$\{embed.ProjectLocal}" eclipse="true" />}}
75 +
76 +A: _Mike Schrag_
77 +eclipse="true" makes the <frameworks> tag parse your .classpath file to determine framework dependencies.

70 70  The nested lib element specifies a [[FileSet>>http://jakarta.apache.org/ant/manual/CoreTypes/fileset.html]]. This should be a fileset of jar libraries required by your application. All files in this fileset will end up in the ##Resources/Java## folder of the application, and will be included on the classpath for this application.

74 -? What does this do ?
88 +This nested element is used to add an arbitrary directory or file path to the runtime classpath. For example on Mac OS X, the directory at APPROOT/Resources/SSLKeyStore/ can be added to the runtime classpath by doing something like this:
