Re: [mylyn-vex-dev] documentation or example of use of vex in an applet

Jonas,

you first need to set up a Vex development environment before you can run this example - sorry, I forgot to mention that. See here http://wiki.eclipse.org/Vex/CommitterResources for further information about the setup.

We do not actively support the Swing bindings anymore, neither do we support the use of Vex outside an OSGi runtime.

yes that was what I did

To run it, create a new launch configuration of type "Eclipse
Application" (the defaults should work fine in the first place). You can
find the interesting code in ft.vex.examples.dialog.CommentDialog.

I set up an repo with my code, where I try to port it to a pure swt
panel... and an applet in the future...
https://github.com/jbrekle/vex-applet
but when I enter any character into the widget, i get an exception:

all this is probably some weird dependency issue...

also i found that VEXCorePlugin has a strange implementation of a
singleton... shouldn't getInstance create the instance if it doesn't
exist yet? i have to call the constructor manually to avoid a null
pointer exception:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException

thank you for the quick reply.

what kind of dialog is this? how do I run it?

Hi Jonas,

there is this little example project that I built for an article in the
German Eclipse Magazin: https://github.com/ftl/vex-examples. It uses Vex
as a widget within a dialog. This might hopefully be what you were
looking for.

Vex does not have a public API yet, this means
1) we give no guarantee yet that everything will stay as it is today
2) if you need any functionality exposed, it is no problem to do this.

If you find any problems or need help, don't hesitate to contact us.

Best Regards,

Florian

Hi,

the documentation on sourceforge says "The Vex editor widget is
available as a pure Java, cross-platform component with bindings to
Swing and SWT. Developers can re-use this widget, for example as an
applet in a web-based application."

I would like to do that. I plan to setup a Wiki to collaboratively edit
some XML files and would like to pack vex into an applet that is a word
processor / WYSIWYG editor that validates the input client side against
a XSD and does some smart auto completion. At best it uses a nice CSS to
hide as much XML-syntax as possible to be non-programmer-friendly, but
thats optional.

Has something like this been done before? Any project where I can see it
working? :)
I am not familiar with Vex or Eclipse RCP stuff but would be willing to
invest some time to get into it, as its for my master thesis...
Any hints for me?

Regards,
Jonas
