Adding things to Marketplace is very easy. Look for the ‘Add Content’ menu item at the top nav bar. I would highly recommend that you have a p2 update site for the utility. This will let people install it directly from the Eclipse Marketplace Client that is bundled with Eclipse. 1. Our existing Java GUIs. I had planned to do a screencast showing how to install the Eclipse plugin at the time of 1.0 release but didn't get it done. We need to promote it more; we might need help on getting it into the Marketplace as I don't think the committers have previously been through that process. We also have the client tool which is standalone / non-RCP / doesn't need Eclipse. Also not well promoted / known, lots of people still use IA92 which is essentially the same thing but built on much much older client code. I love it, I think it's perfectly valid to include as an alternative, and we'd welcome (I think) the contribution. Thanks Kamil! Any questions for us as a team?

I started that a while back to get a simple GUI going. I still think that this approach is valuable in addition to the RCP GUI because:
1) it is 200k rather than 22MB, so is good for quick downloads and small platforms 2) it can run anywhere Java can - is not limited to Linux, Mac and Windows.
Kamil,
I see that mqtt-spy uses JavaFX, and uses Java 8. The interface approach also looks nice. It seems to me that all of these utilities could be complementary, and have a useful place in Paho, because of their different system requirements and GUI styles. People always have different preferences for GUIs. So personalIy I would still encourage you to consider contributing mqtt-spy to Paho.

In fact, Paho already got a client UI tool available for a long time which can be run as a eclipse plugin or standalone application (based on Eclipse Rich Client Platform). But, it seems nobody has tried. A screenshot here: http://pho.to/6ySi2

From: Kamil Baczkowicz <kamil.baczkowicz@xxxxxxxxx> To: paho-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx Date: 09/09/2014 11:28 PM Subject: [paho-dev] Java MQTT Client GUI Utility & mqtt-spy Sent by: paho-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx
Hi all,
Following a quick chat with Andy P, he suggested posting a message here to discuss, again;-), the idea of a Java MQTT Client GUI utility (for Paho).
Over the last couple of weeks and months I've been working on mqtt-spy. It's still far from perfect, so any feedback or help is very much appreciated.
From start, my intention was to make the code open and available to anyone.
I believe you've been thinking about a Java MQTT Client GUI Utility for quite some time, so the question is whether you still need or want one?
If yes, I was wondering whether mqtt-spy could fill that gap, avoiding duplication of effort, and potentially helping you when working on Paho.
My goal for mqtt-spy is to create a functional, easy-to-use and robust test tool for MQTT, Once all necessary features are available, I'd also like to open it to other pub/sub protocols if time allows.
What are your views on that?
