a few questions about the new gogo shell and the old [message #755341]

hi,

i ran across the new impl. of the shell (http://www.eclipse.org/equinox/incubator/console/user-doc.php) and i like what i read, though havent tested it yet.

are there any plans to make this part of the release train/make it the default shell?
are there any means to have ssh for the current built-in console?
can one restrict the access to the telnet session to local host as is possible there?

thx

- As of Juno M3 the gogo based console as been included as the default shell for the Eclipse SDK and Equinox SDK.

- There are no plans to make enhancements to the built-in framework console. All future enhancements will be made to the gogo based console (including ssh support).

- Both the built-in framework console and the gogo based console can be restricted to the localhost by specifying -console localhost:<port>

Please give it a try. If you find any issues/bugs please report against "components" at https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Equinox

i guess this is regarding the juno version, as it doesnt work (for me) in helios, right?

In Helios the built-in framework console is enabled by default and there is no way to disable it. This makes it difficult to run an external console. In Indigo we added an option osgi.console.enable.builtin which can be set to false. If you set this property then you should be able to install the gogo bundles and the equinox external console bundles and run them on top of Indigo.

For Juno we have more tight integration so that the framework will detect the external console and automatically activate it if a console has been requested (e.g. by using the -console option).

Tom.
