[dash-dev] Re: EclipseShell, Rhino Support and EclipseMonkey
Werner -- Nice. I hope it was not too much trouble. We've made some progress on our end too. We now handle "DOM:" metadata. This gives your script only the DOMs that you ask for and it will retrieve them from an update site if need be. Load version 0.1.3 here: 

	http://download.eclipse.org/technology/dash/update/
We'll be doing a BOF on this at EclipseCon. I'd love to say that we know for sure that the DOMs are language neutral. Let us know what you find out. Thanks and best regards. -- Ward

hi Ward,

a little update on EclipseShell and Rhino:
I added Rhino support now, ie. you can open up an interactive editor (see the website 
http://eclipse-shell.sourceforge.net/
 for details and intro screencasts).
The RhinoSupport is quite minimal, but it should be able to do AutoComplete for variables and 
methods of objects (this is a bit wobbly at the moment).


For installing this simply use this Update Site:
//http://eclipse-shell.sourceforge.net/update/
If you want to use MonkeyDOMs from EclipseShell, I put together a little util script which will give 
you a Map with (DOMVariableName -> DOMRootObject).


function getInstalledDOMs() {
nameToDom = Packages.java.util.HashMap()
reg = Packages.org.eclipse.core.runtime.Platform.getExtensionRegistry() 
point = reg.getExtensionPoint("org.eclipse.eclipsemonkey.dom");
extensions = point.getExtensions();
for each(extension in extensions){
 configurations = extension.getConfigurationElements();
 for each(element in configurations){
   varName = element.getAttribute("variableName");
   dom = element.createExecutableExtension("class");
   domRoot = obj.getDOMroot();
   nameToDom.put(varName, domRoot);
 }
}
return nameToDom;
}
I'll have a look at using the DOMs from the other supported languages, which should work.
