RE: [atf-dev] JavaScript Editor/Development Tool Proposal
Title: Message
Jesse:
I think that something that could a killer feature for me would be how to make it really easy to deal with libraries.
The Java JDT way is the notion of classpath and classpath containers.
This is a well known way which matches the way Java deals with it, and could be used as an approach for JSDT.
Yet there is something that always tickled me.
When I code in Java I should not have to install and add to the my classpath well know libraries.
 
So if something better than what we have in Java come be done for the JSDT that would be superb.
Something like automated library path management.

Hmm well....Don't look ~too~ closely at it. I found that having to manually maintain these _javascript_ "profiles" rather tedious after using JSEclipse for so long. It doesn't have as many of the snazzy html / etc integration features but it does what it's supposed to do very well. (edit _javascript_)

Have you seen aptana? (aptana.com)

They're working on what seems to be a pretty good eclipse-based web
IDE. It includes a nice JS editor and is licensed under EPL.

I haven't looked at their code yet, but perhaps it makes sense to
investigate if it's possible to reuse some of their code instead of
starting from scratch. If not, you can at least look at what they
already do for inspiration :)
