Hi Christian,
thanks for the update - and I took only the good news for me :-)
its important for me to know that you're working on this - and because
I'm at the moment focussing on all the views I can generate using
redView I think it'll take 3 weeks or so before I go back trying to
design my complex or special-case views using SWTDesigner.
would be great if you put all the HowTos and Tips at Riena Wiki
status of redView:
* our layout is nearly complete, works great on OSX and windows and
looks exactly the same
* databinding needs some time
* generating the views from my UML model using oaw works well - already
generated some hundred views
hopefully in 2 - 3 weeks you can get a first demo
ekke
btw: of course I'll tell Eric how important integration of riena into
swtdesigner - codegeneration is ;-)

Hi Ekke,
good news and bad news :-) Good news is that we are now actually
allocating ressources to investigate and document the use of SWT
Designer in combination with Riena. Bad news is that we are only
starting NOW and havnt done much yet other than do some preliminary
testing and find the most obvious things.
But there are only so many things you can do in a given time.
But we are seriously now looking into this and will come up with some
results in the next few weeks.
Some obvious things are that we need a kind of template for creating
view and controller with some placeholders. That is something that we
might be able to address with a wizard that create a new Riena View
with Controller and an assembly for placing that into the navigation
tree. A workstudent is working on that and we might be soon able to
contribute that as a patch.
The other thing is the addUIControl call that you have to place for
every widget in the view. That does two things. One is it adds a
property into the data hashmap to give the widget a name and it adds it
to the container of widgets for which we need to later automatically
create a ridget.
The first step can already been done in SWT Designer. Not beautiful but
doable. The second step could be automated in Riena.
These are the things I accross when doing some preliminary testing. As
I said we are going to do some more investigation starting now.

It would certainly help if SWTDesigner creates this addUIControl
method call. I will talk to him about this.

hi christian,

did you found the time to give eric clayberg the informations how
swtdesigner could provide better support for riena views ?
