Re: [science-iwg] KNIME and Eclipse 4.3M6
|
Hi Andy,
you're right. The usage of Swing in KNIME is indeed a drawback. But I
really admire in KNIME the R- and Matlab-Support as well as the rich
reporting functionality.
@Erwin:
Is there a R-/Matlab-Support in Passerelle? If no, how hard is it to get
it running?
Cheers,
Philip

Hi Philippe,
we had a look at Knime in the past and yes it looks cool but we
finally decided to use Passerelle
(http://code.google.com/a/eclipselabs.org/p/passerelle/) for workflows
inside Dawn. Dawn integrates Passerelle and provides the visualisation
and Python scripting support. It would be great if you could try
Passerelle and let us know whether it satisfies your needs. Passerelle
is open source so you can modify it.
One down side we found with Knime when we looked at it was the weak
integration in eclipse. It still used Swing for the UI then. I don't
know if this has been ported to SWT since then. And yes you are right
Knime does not fit our definition of Open Source either 8-(

Andy
p.s. I have put the main developer of Passerelle in copy - Erwin

Hi folks,
has anyone experience with KNIME (http://www.knime.org)?
I think it's a cool software and offers it great possibilities to create
customized evaluations and reports. There's a version for Eclipse 3.7.2
and 3.8, but I can't get it work under latest release 4.2.2 or 4.3M6.
I'd really like to use it, and I've tried to get answers in the KNIME
forum, without success:
http://tech.knime.org/forum/knime-general/eclipse-43m6-cannot-install-via-update-site
http://tech.knime.org/forum/knime-developers/source-code-repository-of-knime-where-to-find
I'm also willing to adapt the source code to the latest Eclipse release
(if possible), but there seems to be no access to the source code. They
advertise it as an open source project. Some people say I'm too tight,
but that's not the meaning of open source. Am I wrong?
Cheers,
Philip
