Programming Assignment for GUI developers
Your task will be to learn the use of a new GUI development environment
and show how
you can make simple modifications to existing software by learning where
to find the
“hooks” to make the changes.
The specific task is to learn how to modify a GEF(graphical editing
framework) plug-in
in Eclipse. The instructions are as follows:
1. Download and install eclipse from http://eclipse.org
2. Learn how to construct a plug-in using the help provided in Eclipse.
You may
want to begin by using the Helloworld plug-in example given.
3. Download and install the GEF plug-in from http://www.eclipse.org/gef/
4. Make sure the plug-in is working in your eclipse environment.
5. Change the settings in the plugin so that it can be launched directly
instead of
running it as a runtime application through the Eclipse GUI. That is, it
should be
possible to launch the plugin by a double-click on the plugin icon in your
file
browser.
6. The logic template provided in the plug-in has a layout shown below in
Figure 1.
7. First, try to change the name of the groups. For this, you will have to
track down
the necessary classes in the GEF plug-in and make the modification.
8. If you are successful here, you may optionally change the names of the
pull-down
menu options you see by pressing the inverted triangles.
9. You can return your results by sending the following files:
a. The java classes modified to change the names of the group.
b. Instructions on how to compile and run the classes (eg. Any settings you
did to make it work at your end) so that we may replicate the demo at our
end.
c. The appearance of the GUI at your last run.
