Re: [jetty-users] Having Jetty Eclipse Plugins to manage XML Jetty confi

[Angelo zerr <angelo.zerr@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Greg,

Thank a lot for your answer. The features that I have described in my last mail is possible with my XML Search Engine. Indead my XML search engine give you the capibility to use it with UI Dialog (like Search/File) but you can use it too in your plugins. You need just declare via extension point link between XML node and it manage autocmpletion, hyperlink, validation and Ctrl+Shift+G.

So I think it's easy to manage the features described. I'm using XML Search engien with professional custom XML descriptor and I thought that it should be cool to manage XML Jetty config. So I could improve it to manage some another features (like autocmpletion with Java method that I have not managed).

I will try to start something and send you my work if I have time to do that.

Angelo,

I think this is a useful thing to have - so it is more than a toy.
But I'm not sure it is a vital thing to have - so I would not spend
days and days on it.

I really like the jetty.xml format and think it is one of the best DI
XMLs around.
So an editor that would be able to link the formats capability with
knowledge of the java classes being called would be great and a useful
addition to your WTP work,


cheers
