Re: [ve-dev] NetBeans GUI Builder...


Hi PreqezDeQueya,

Plugin development is the architecture that describes how you contribute to Eclipse.  Eclipse is made up of a set up of modules that define the modules they require (their pre-requisites) and also the functionality they contribute.  The contributions are defined in something called the manifest that is basically an XML file that says stuff like "I want to add this menu contribution" or "I want to add this viewer".  There are a number of good books on Eclipse, the best of which I know are "the Java Developers guide to Eclipse" and "Contributing to Eclipes" and "Building commercial quality plugin-ins" all by Addison Wesley.

NetBeans is a good GUI builder, however a question as to integrating it into Eclipse would be better asked to the NetBeans development team themselves.

Are there any particular features of NetBeans that you wish to see integrated into the Eclipse visual editor ?  We're always striving to improve the visual editor based on user feedback so specific requests such as, for example, "Support SpringLayout" or "Support JSpinner" or whatever we can estimate, schedule and put into a release.  

Best regards and many thanks,

Joe Winchester
