Deploying XML Editor in isolation [message #72916] Thu, 10 February 2005 17:06 Go to next message

Originally posted by: dof.capetechnologies.com

Hi,

I'm trying to create an application based on Eclipse that has a suite of
editors and launchers. The editors mainly use Eclipse forms to edit the
source XML files but I would also like the users to be able to edit XML
(similar to plugin manifest editor but with a more functional XML editor
part). The JDT or PDE would not be installed.

I would like to use the XML editor from webtools on its own without the
rest of the WST or the JST. I've managed to install the
org.eclipse.wst.xml.ui plugin with 16 other plugins that it depends on. It
works fine when all plugins from JDT are installed.

Would it be possible to make allowances for people to deploy a single
editor from webtools without an avalanche of dependencies? For instance,
it looks like the JDT is required to run the XML editor.

Currently, would it be possible for me to embed the XML editor in my
multi-page editor with installing it as a plugin?

Regards,
Dave.

We have some rough, highlevel plans to improve on "subsysystem deployment".
But I'd recommend you open a feature request stating what you'd like,
being sure to give as much "motivating" reasons as possible. e.g. is this
for another Eclipse project? Another product? Just you're own personal use?
(nothing confidential, of course, we just need to understand any long term
dependancies we'd be signing up for).

Thanks very much.
