Re: [platform-ui-dev] Coding an Eclipse plugin with HTML, JS (and Eclipse Browser)
|
For the EASE project I am planning to provide an API to build full
views. While already working on a proof of concept I identified 2
challenges so far:
a) come up with a simple, yet powerful API
b) persistence layer of e4
Currently the workbench persists everything that you create - also
dynamically created views. Problem there is that it just persists the
view, not the content within the view. This results in all kinds of
broken perspectives after a restart. There is a ticket open for that topic:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=378815
As long as this issues is not solved I do not see a clear way for EASE
to provide scripted UIs. If we can find a solution here I will volunteer
to prepare a demo for ECE 2017 :)

As for scripting integration like JS the EASE project provides hooks
into the Eclipse IDE. Not sure if they can build full views.
