Version 1.1.1 released(support eclipse 3.4 now )
release note: T4EclipseVersion1_1_1
Version 1.1 released
introduction
t4eclipse is developed when I learn and use swt/eclipse. I develop this tool to make life easier for me as an eclipse plug-in developer. And I believe that this tool will also help you in some way.
Currently, t4eclipse provides the following functions:
- list all wizards, preference pages, views,editors,perspectives in current eclipse workbench.
- provide method to find the java class for the above eclispe components.
- provide method to view all swt controls in a view/editor.
- and you can analysis the above swt contorl by check its field value or invoke a method with no paras.
- list the java class for each opened Dialog in eclipse.
- list all path id for eclipse main menu, so that you can easily add a menuitem in a special place.
Installation
t4eclipse can be used in any eclispe3.2 to eclipse3.4 version on windows and linux platform. (other platform may also works but I can not promise)
- update update site at: http://t4eclipse.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/updatesite/eclipse
- Download the latest eclipse plug-in jar file for t4eclipse and put it to your eclipse plugins directory.
Note:
If you still can not see the t4eclipse menu after you installed it in eclipse. Try to start eclipse with "-clean" parameter.
Open t4eclipse view by click main menu "t4eclipse-->open/update t4eclise view" or the related toolbar item. (if you open t4eclipse view using standard eclipse way, this menu also need to be clicked in order to fill the data in the view tables.)
