How to load a DOM and make it available to script? [message #1484]

Hi,

I skimmed through the following site while creating a DOM
http://www.eclipse.org/dash/monkey-help.php?key=writing

I have written a very basic DOM factory and want to make it available
when I run a script using my DOM object (currently it displays an error
that the object was not resolved). How can I do that?

The website says that I need to follow
http://<update-site>/<dom-plugin-id> pattern in the script header.

Could any one please post a simple DOM plugin example that could be
loaded from the local file system (instead of an update site) and a
simple script that uses it?

Appreciate any pointers. BTW, I think Eclipse Monkey is going to shape
up into a real cool scripting env.!

Great work!

Cheers,
Rahul

Thanks John,

I figured it out! Needed to have a DOM directive in the script header
even if there was no update site available for my plugin.

Cheers,
Rahul

I guess we should document that - yes, it uses the DOM directives to
decide which DOMs to instantiate.

Hi there,

I've got the same issue ... I was wondering about the syntax of the DOM
directive though.

Can you elaborate ? What exactly should I have for ...

DOM http://update-site/dom-plugin-id

if I don't have an update site ?

thanks for any help,
Evan

Hi (again),

oops. looks like that I can reply to myself as well :-)

checking the code shows that the metadata is parsed via these regular
expressions ...

p = Pattern.compile("Menu:\\s*((\\p{Graph}| )+)", Pattern.DOTALL);
p = Pattern.compile("Scope:\\s*((\\p{Graph}| )+)", Pattern.DOTALL);
p =
Pattern.compile("DOM:\\s*(\\p{Graph}+)\\/((\\p{Alnum}|\\.)+) ",Pattern.DOTALL);

and so it just needs the slash before the plugin-id.

Naturally, following the other code shows that if the plugin can be loaded -
it doesn't need the URL. I had also just forgotten the:

- develop the plugin
- export the plugin
- import the plugin
- use plugin

cycle.

thanks,
Evan
