Dart Editor equivalent of Eclipse command “Project >> Clean…”?

Question

Is there an equivalent of the Eclipse \"Project\" menu \"Clean...\" command in the Dart Editor? If not, how can a project be cleaned of the files generated by the various tools

Answer 1

I have the same question. However I am coming to this question with a suggestion. I would like people to consider the build model implemented by Apache Maven for Dart builds.

The nice thing about the maven model is that you can:

1. Define custom actions aside from the built-in ones.
2. Implement custom handlers for actions.

As for the clean action in Eclipse -- Add my vote for Dart Editor.

Eclipse normally use either Apache Ant or Apache Maven for build actions. 'Clean' is a standard action and found its way to the Build menu at a very early stage. Which gives me an idea;

• Add some UI meta-management to the Dart Editor
• Build tool = Current Dart build (default), OR user specified: Ant, Maven, ...
• Build menu = Set standard actions, allow custom actions against the current build tool; e.g. a "database load".

I know with new frameworks and languages there's always more things to do that time to do it. There are probably better examples than just And or Maven. I'm just pondering some flexible options to make the Dart development environment a little "future proof". ;-)
