Hi everybody,
I'm trying to improve my Web Page Editor with additional librairies of
tags.
I find some solution on the web but they are not working.

The first solution I have found is to use the extension point
org.eclipse.jst.jsf.common.standardMetaDataFiles. I create my XML file
similary to the existing one in the plugin standarttag used in Eclipse.
This solution don't work for me.

The second solution is to use the extension point
org.eclipse.jst.pagedesigner.pageDesignerExtension. I success in modifying
the palette but it is now empty.

I think the first solution is the solution I need, but I don't unterstand
why it is not working for me.

Thank you
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
I'am a french student.

I'am doing what you are trying to do and it works fine for me.
If you need some help and precise questions tell me.

Look at the uri's you defined. Are they the same in the extension point
and in the file ?

Hi,
yes I have the same URI.

This is my xml file, it is just a simple new tag added in a new category
in the palette :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<md:metadatamodel
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:ecore="http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore"
xmlns:md="http://org.eclipse.jst.jsf.common.metadata/metadata.ecore"
xmlns:mdt=" http://org.eclipse.jst.jsf.common.metadata/metadataTraitType s.ecore"

xmlns:pi="http://org.eclipse.jsf.pagedesigner/paletteInfos.ecore"
id="newtag"
type="tagFile">

<entity id="form" type="tag">
<trait id="display-label">
<value>Form</value>
</trait>
</entity>
</md:metadatamodel>

This is my extension point :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?eclipse version="3.2"?>
<plugin>

<extension
point="org.eclipse.jst.jsf.common.standardMetaDataFiles">
<standardMetaDataFile
location="metadata/html-edf.xml"
uri="newtag">
</standardMetaDataFile>
</extension>

</plugin>

Perhaps there are other things to do in order to make the plugin works.

Thank you.

Thomas

Hi All,

It would be highly appreciated if you could share details of the correct implementation for adding custom items to the wpe palette.

I made the configuration of metadata files, associated with plugin manifest, but couldn't find the proper way to set these as Palette items.

Could someone who already figured it out help?

Not much progress so far...

Thanks in advance and kind regards,
