Re: [pde-dev] Recreating plugin.xml editor form

[Chris Aniszczyk <zx@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The manifest editor in PDE is quite
complicated, here is the reference:
        org.eclipse.pde.internal.ui.editor.plugin.ManifestEditor

The editor is just based on Eclipse
Forms, you can look here at how to use Forms:
        http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-Forms/article.html
        http://www.eclipse.org/articles/article.php?file=Article-Forms33/index.html

Hey All,

I am looking for a way to create a custom .xml editor that would work like
the plugin.xml form editor. It needs just the GUI form editor and the source.
I have figured out how to make the source version and have a form, but
I was wondering if there was an easy way to connect the two. Where would
I find the source for the plugin.xml editor? That would help tremendously.

Thanks,
Philippe Sabourin
