Completion using XML Schema [message #276981] Thu, 02 December 2004 10:46 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hi,

I want to implement an XML editor that should support schema
highlighting and of course completion. Is there a standard way to "just"
pick the xml schema and generate the rules for completion/highlighting?

Thanks,

Raphael

Check the current Integration build of the Web Tools project. It includes
an XML editor with completion based on an XML Schema. It also includes
preview versions of editors for XML Schema, DTD, WSDL, HTML, CSS, and JSP.
It's coming along very nicely!

A new Web Tools I-build was run today (20041202) and should be available
later today, pending test verification.

Regards,
Dave Carlson

Is there an eclipse update site or download site for WST? If not, can you
document how to get the binaries using CVS?

Does WST work with 3.1? Thanks.

This page contains the link for project binaries, plus instructions on its
CVS location. Web Tools is targeting 3.1 for all of its development, so
yes, it works with 3.1.

Can XML DTD and/or Schema based editor be extracted as a low-footprint
component and be used in R3.0.1?

Sam,
You could extract a reasonably low-footprint set of plug-ins for those
editors. You would need to follow plug-in dependencies to determine all
necessary prereqs; e.g. all editors depend on the abstract "structured
edtior" sse plugin. Separate plug-ins are provided for editing XML, XSD,
and DTD. The XSD edtior uses the XML editor.

WTP development is targeting Eclipse 3.1, because they are expected to
release about the same time. So far, there are a few places where 3.1
specific APIs are used, but I have successfully used a recent build of the
XML/XSD editor with 3.0.1. But this config is not supported...

Thanks Dave.

What's your advise to do this on R3.0.1 - latest sources from CVS or
download (what?)

Sam,
Just grab the latest I-build distribution. Get the "wst" build, which is
smaller because it omits the J2EE components.

The XML and XSD editors are very nice, supporting formatting, Content
Assist, and more. There are separate plugins for validation, plus general
abstract validation framework plugins. Without those, the editor will work
but the validation menus will be missing.

Dave, thanks for clarifications.

I already did some check-outs from CVS.
Hope to play two (at least) roles: user and developer. :)
Any hidden pitfalls?

Sam, now is a good time to start a more active developer (and user) role.
Until now, plugin names were changing and moving as the IBM contribution was
refactored for eclipse. But most of those changes are now committed to CVS.

Have fun! These tools are very cool.
