[wtp-dev] An editor to help you edit component.xml


For those of you refining component.xml files, I created a very simple Eclipse editor that helps you edit this file. Here's how to set it up:

1. Check out two plugins from CVS:

dev.eclipse.org:/home/webtools/org.eclipse.wtp.releng/apitools/org.eclipse.wtp.releng.tools.component.core
dev.eclipse.org:/home/webtools/org.eclipse.wtp.releng/apitools/org.eclipse.wtp.releng.tools.component.ui

2. Launch a run-time workbench
3. Create a simple project
4. Put your component.xml files into the simple project
5. Double click your component.xml to open it in the component.xml editor.
6. In the "Component" tab, you can add/remove plug-ins (hit the delete key to remove).
7. In the "APIs" tab, you can add/remove packages/types, and specify their usages. Right click in the tree view to add and hit the delete key to remove.

Btw, I think the editor pre-reqs Eclipse 3.1. Feel free to let me know if you run into any problems using the editor.
