Build Creator
The BuildCreator tool was devised to enable the easy generation of binary packages that include more than one source. The purpose of the build creator is to simplify the building of projects that require the combining of multiple sources. To aid discussion of the tool we shall look at the configuration file combining the Apache Qpid release with that of the BerkeleyDB Store plugin form JBoss. However, the tool is a general binary build tool written in Python.
