Communicating between eclipse and swt browser... [message #451680]

Hello All,
I have a requirement as follows...

My local (eclipse based plugin) windows application will launch an SWT
browser embedded in a SWT dialog. Once, the launch happens, the requirement
is that the eclipse plugin should be able to access the browser (DOM) some
how....If not, atleast some kind of two way communication mechanism between
the plugin and the browser.
Could you please provide me with information about the feasibility of having
such functionality...
I came across a sample code that communicates using Browser
StatusTextListener functionality. But, I feel that there could be a better
way of achieving this functionality. One possible approach could be is to
have the plugin run a small http server.

On a side note, I wonder how google provides a local desktop search
functionality..Is it done by having a server embedded in the desktop
application that they run.
thanks a lot in advance..
-Sck

Hi Sck,

Add your vote to
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=57477

At the moment as you suggested you need to use techniques like the one from
snippet "query DOM node value".
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.swt.sni ppets/src/org/eclipse/swt/snippets/Snippet160.java?rev=HEAD& amp;content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup
And this one:
"modify DOM (execute javascript)"
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.swt.sni ppets/src/org/eclipse/swt/snippets/Snippet161.java?rev=HEAD& amp;content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup

thanks for pointing me to the voting link....I voted for it..
I think, this kind of functionality is becoming more and more common with
Eclipse.
thanks,
Sck.
