RE: [eclipse-dev] What's next for eclipse (round 2)
|
In order to avoid starting any scripting language wars, Eclipse should
simply include a BSF (Bean Scripting Framework) binding, so that any
number of scripting languages can be used. See
http://jakarta.apache.org/bsf/.

If
we are about to include some kind of scripting language in
eclipse,
I suggest checking
"jython", which is the Python language implemented
in Java and gives access to all
java classes of the program.
It has a nice feature of
compiling the scripts into Java bytecodes, which means it
should be quite
fast.
I had a very positive
experience with jython, and I believe it is the
right language for scripting
inside large Java programs..

- +1.
- My ideal implementation would be to expose macros using an
implementation of Emacs Lisp, then include a record/play function in the
UI to activate them. There's already an open source project
implementing a large chunk of this (JEmacs) that would be worth
investigating.
- This would have the nice side-effect of creating a "plug-in
API" for text editing, enabling people to more easily extend the
text editor. It would also enable people to create plug-ins by
porting things from the huge library of Emacs Lisp add-ins that are
already available.
