Re: [wtp-dev] Adding Content Assist for external Javascript library
Hi Chris, many many thanks for your suggestions

I've made some tests adding the library file manually and it did work!, but I want to do that inside the plugin, and I want to hide the _javascript_ file containing my library from the project.

I think I have some problems with jsdtscope file, right now after I've added the _javascript_ library from the properties menu, using my plugin,  it looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<classpath>
    <classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.launching.JRE_CONTAINER"/>
    <classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.launching.WebProject">
        <attributes>
            <attribute name="hide" value="true"/>
        </attributes>
    </classpathentry>
    <classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.launching.baseBrowserLibrary"/>
    <classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.launching.MyLibLibrary"/>
    <classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.launching.FireFoxBrowserLibrary"/>
</classpath>

I think the problem is that org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.support.MyLibLibrary does not exist, or is corrupt since it complains about the build path entry.

I pretty much did the same thing as the firefox plugin, but I don't know how this org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.launching object works, what is it?

I think that if I manage to add my library to that object my problems will be solved. Do you have any idea how can I verify that my library is loading correctly?

thanks

julian

Hi Julian,

It looks like you've done all the necessary steps. Sounds like you're almost there. My guess is the .jsdtscope file is not being updated correctly. I would make sure that that file is set up as expected. Then put a breakpoint in your initializer and make sure it is resolving your library entry to the correct path. Where are you storing your actual library file? Is it being put into the metadata folder or are you putting it directly in your project?

If you expand your library node in the _javascript_ resources do you see your fields, functions, and types defined?

If you want to do some simple tests of just your library itself you could just put it inside a folder in your project and set that folder to be a library folder using the _javascript_ project properties page.

Re: [wtp-dev] Adding Content Assist for external _javascript_ library

Hi! I've managed to  create a valid js file with jsdoc comments.

I've created a plugin with a plugin.xml similar to this one:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?eclipse version="3.5"?>
<plugin>
<!-- JSDT wizard extension -->
    <extension point="org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.ui.JsGlobalScopeContainerPage">
        <JsGlobalScopeContainerPage
            name="MyLib Library"
            class="org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.internal.ui.wizards.buildpaths.MyLibSupportWizardPage"
            id="org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.support.MyLib">
      </JsGlobalScopeContainerPage>
   </extension>
    <!-- JSDT Global Scope Handler -->
    <extension
    point="org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core.JsGlobalScopeContainerInitializer">
        <JsGlobalScopeContainerInitializer
        class="org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core.compiler.libraries.MyLibLibInitializer"
        id="org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.launching.MyLibLibrary">
        </JsGlobalScopeContainerInitializer>
    </extension>
   
   <extension point="org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.ui.JsGlobalScopeUIInitializer">
     <JsGlobalScopeUIInitializer
        id="org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.launching.MyLibLibrary"
        class="org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core.compiler.libraries.MyLibUiInitializer">
     </JsGlobalScopeUIInitializer>
   </extension>
</plugin>


I looked at the source code of the org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.support.firefox plugin directly from the cvs tree and I have implemented all the clases I need.....(actually I don't know if a need all that stuff).

Then I installed the plugin I can right-click on a Web Project the Properties->_javascript_->Libraries , then I click on Add _javascript_ Library.....then I can see my library there I click next and then finish to add it.....so far so good.


After that I can see My library inside the _javascript_ references in my project, BUT it says org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.launching.MyLib(unknown), and then, if I go agin to the properties of my project under the _javascript_->Libraries menu I see a worning on top of the window that says "Build path entry is missing: org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.launching.MyLib"


Chris do you know what I'm missing? I haven't been able to figure it out just yet!!

If anybody has an idea I'll be happy to try it....

thanks

julian

    Hi Julian,

    If you created a library and added it to the build path of your project then content assist will just start working. You do not have to do anything special to trigger the content assist.

    At minimum you should be implementing the following extension point -     org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core.JsGlobalScopeContainerInitializer

    Then you either need to create the UI to allow a user to manually add the new library to their project(    org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.ui.JsGlobalScopeContainerPage and org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.ui.JsGlobalScopeUIInitializer) or you could write code to programmatically add the library based on your user scenario(IJavaScriptProject.setRawIncludePath).



    Thanks,
    Chris

    Re: [wtp-dev] Adding Content Assist for external _javascript_ library

    Hi Chris I took a look at what you pointed me, and it was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

    I've managed to create a _javascript_ file similar to the one in the firefox plugin.

    But it is still unclear to me how to make it available to code assist, without directly including the js file.

    I don't understand very well the way the firefox plugin does this....


    could you point me to some documentation about this problems?

    thank you very much for your help!

        Hi Julian,

        If you have a _javascript_ file or files that you would like to make available as a library take a look at the org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.support.firefox plugin.

        This plugin adds a firefox specific library, using JSDT extensions, to a project and makes its fields/functions available in content assist. It has all the code in there to create a new library container and make it available in the project wizard or in the project properties page.

        Let me know if that handles your scenario.

        Thanks,
        Chris
