Hi all,
I want to develop a custom WYSIWYG jsp editor with my own tools in the
palette.
The editor is very similar with the wpe jsp editor but i am not sure with
the best way to implement the little differences between the wpe editor
and mine.
I am a newbie in plugins development and i am not able to estimate the
time needed do that.
Here are my questions to answer my customer. What is the best way to :
- Provide my own palette or simply complete the existing palette with my
own tools ?
- Match those tools with exiting jsp tags or my own tags ?
- and finally,to change the behaviour of the dropped components (for
example, i want to display a default string value in the text component
since they are dropped into the wysiwig editor)
I have already check out the
org.eclipse.jst.pagedesigner.pageDesignerExtension source code and it
seems to be the solution but i am not sure of that.Maybye it exists a more
straightforward solution.
Thank you for your answer.
RV

Hi Xino,
Extending the WPE they way you want should be achievable, although you
will need to understand plugin development to do it.
The pagedesigner extension is the place to do most of what you want. The
paletteFactory extension option would let you replace the palette with
your own. There is also a way to modify what is dropped using metadata;
look at jsf_html_pi.xml in org.eclipse.jst.jsf.standard.tagsupport,
particularly the tag-create trait on certain tags like the dataTable. You
can also customize what is dropped or created by implementing an
elementEditFactory and returning your own implementation of the
appropriate API.
Thanks,
Cameron
