[ide4edu-dev] Updated New Project Wizard
|
Team, I have updated the New Project Wizard per Bug 300294 and Bug
299332. The latter bug introduces a new plug-in,
org.eclipse.ide4edu.javalite.constructors. The "constructors" bundle
contains classes that know how to construct things like projects and
classes. Constructors don't have a GUI. They are used by GUIs. I have
updated the team project set to include this new plug-in.
UCOSP students, by now you have likely found the CVS Repository
Exploring perspective. You can use this to load the new plug-ins as an
alternative to the team project set.
With this change, I have separated the responsibility of actually
creating the class from the user interface. I hope you'll agree that the
new implementation is cleaner and much simpler. It has the added benefit
of being based on public APIs (with the exception of the icon--I'll take
care of this tomorrow). I'd like to see similar separation done for the
Java Class wizard. Any takers? See Bug 300275 for my thoughts/notes on
the topic. Please feel free to ask any questions that need asking.
In the process, I have also created a new testing project for the
constructors. It only has one test for now. I'll be adding a few more
tests in the coming days. The constructor object is not complete; we'll
have to consider how to handle issues with the name, for example.
