Adding beans to palette ? [message #124432]

Hi,

I've just started using the VE and I have some custom GUI beans I have
previously created. I'm unsure how I add these to the VE so I can see them
in the palette and then how I tell VE that they should be shown (not under
swing or swt but my own folder).

The help for VE mentions beaninfo classes but do I really have to create
these for my gui beans ? I know when I used netbeans it just let me add
the str8 to the palette.

Thanks

Steve

Steve,

Please see this document for information about adding custom beans to
the palette:
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/indextools.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E /org.eclipse.ve.examples/org.eclipse.ve.example.customwidget /WebContent/index.html

If this is too complicated, you can consider just using the Choose Bean
function in the VE to drop your custom beans when you need it.

Hope this helps,
- Jeff
