Re: [Wtp-wst-dev] Getting WST XML/DTD/SCHEMA Editor functionality

Hi Dennis,

1. You may find the SWT articles [1]
and website [2] helpful in learning about SWT.

[2] http://www.eclipse.org/swt/

2. I believe the WST XML DOM is contained
in the org.eclipse wst.sse.core plug-in. Someone from the SSE team should
be able to point you to the correct location of the code and any documentation
they've got to go along with it.

3. <insert standard disclaimer that
I'm not a lawyer> In general the answer is yes although you should take
a look at the Eclipse legal resources page [1] to understand the terms
of the EPL.

Subject	[Wtp-wst-dev] Getting WST XML/DTD/SCHEMA Editor functionality

Hi,

I'm interested in developing an Eclipse Plugin supporting the OASIS
standard. As I found the WTP Editors very useful, wrinting an Editor
on my own would be quite stupid. I already checked out some
sourcecode, but as I'm new to SWT (I become feeling comfortable in
SWT) and in Eclipse Plugins, I need your help getting up und running
;-)

My questions:
1) How can I initiate an Editor in an SWT widget (I want it in a
tab of my own plugin, so I would like to start the Editor on my own)

2) Is there a documentation of the WST [XML] DOM, as I need to hold the
data and
representation of my document consistent to the Editor, so why not use
the same and extend/link it?

3) I'm not sure how much work this will be and what license this
software is going to be released under. I'm a supporter of Open
Source, but maybe the software will become commercial. Can I integrate
(or build
on top of) the WST plugins and include that plugins into my commercial
product (please don't blame as the tool will be aimed on big companies
EDI transfers, so I bet that won't hurt them and anyone else won't
need it ;-).

Thanks a lot!
Dennis
