Re: [ve-dev] Need help on JEM and proxy stuffs.

VE requires instances for introspections
(properties, events etc.), as well as a way
to screen scrape visuals (if you want
a WYSIWYG kind of thing).  These are the beans that it will model.
 
You can have a design time .jar with
the beans you need to model.
Screen scraping is optional (you can
hard code visual with GEF).

There is not much beyond the JavaDoc..  the VE/JEM
Rose models are at org.eclipse.ve.java.core\rose, org.eclipse.ve.cde\rose,
org.eclipse.jem\rose, see attached description
