PDE Build & Subfolders

When you are on vacation (snowboarding for a week), it’s always interesting to think of what changed while you’re gone (then you get upset combing through thousands of emails when you get back ;p). Here is my favorite change so far: Bug 165349. Basically this PDE build enhancement (for 3.3M4) allows one to copy subfolders in an easy fashion, for example…

root.folder.<subfolder> = [absolute:][file:]<path>
root.<config>.folder.<subfolder> = [absolute:][file:]<path>

ie.,
root.folder.foo = …
root.win32.win32.x86.folder.foo/bar = …

This change will be used by PDE to allow people to export JREs along with their products.
