[00:11:45] <kirkt> is acceleo any good? last time i tried MDA was with androMDA
[00:12:27] <alf_makina> kirkt: yes, I find it very good
[00:12:57] <alf_makina> I'm currently working on a web DSL and a PHP/Zend Framework generator
[00:13:20] <alf_makina> and I've got more problems with php than with MDA =)
[00:15:33] <alf_makina> except for this export problem
[00:16:43] <kirkt> interesting. i'm hearing more and more about DSLS
[00:19:23] <alf_makina> in my case, it's because it will be easier to define a webapp with a dsl than with UML which have to many concepts and always need to play with stereotypes
[00:19:51] <alf_makina> but for now, my DSL is realy closed to UML class diagram

[00:21:06] <cruss1> Good evening.  Is it possible to set the JPEG encoding level when saving a file?
[00:21:20] <cruss1> The lossiness is harshing my buzz.
[00:21:33] <kirkt> i guess this is where programmers go back to the basics. since DSLs are the next big thing, i guess i should spend more time on compiler theory.
[00:22:21] <kirkt> gtg, good night

[00:38:30] <cruss1> Sounds like some kind of tight coupling.
[00:38:35] <cruss1> :)
[00:38:50] <d_a_carver> or just my plain stupidity. :)
[00:39:08] <cruss1> Yeah, possibly that.  Giving you a away out, though.

[03:56:47] <blahdeblah> Hi.  I'm reading the 3.3 README, and i can't see anything in it about what i need to do to upgrade plugins.  Will it "just work", or do i need to do some manual upgrading?
[03:57:41] <atomi-> the updater runs at startup blahdeblah
[03:58:12] <blahdeblah> So if i just copy my 3.2 installation directory, extract 3.3 over the top, and start it up, it should go looking for updates?
[03:58:19] <rcjsuen> blahdeblah: That really depends on the plug-ins.
[03:58:32] <blahdeblah> Most of them are pretty well-behaved, i think.
[03:58:36] <rcjsuen> blahdeblah: Extracting 3.3 on top of a 3.2 is dangerous and risky. Advance at your own risk.
[03:59:08] <blahdeblah> rcjsuen: So how can i copy the plugin update sources?
[04:00:39] <blahdeblah> And is there anything significant in eclipse/configuration i should copy?
[04:02:03] <rcjsuen> "plugin update sources"?
[04:02:37] <blahdeblah> rcjsuen: I'm probably not using the right jargon.
[04:02:42] *** alf_makina has quit IRC
[04:03:21] <blahdeblah> rcjsuen: I mean all the update sources i've added to my eclipse config.  I'm assuming they're stored in the installation directory, not the workspace
[04:04:13] <rcjsuen> Not sure I follow.
[04:04:26] <rcjsuen> Source? URL links?
[04:04:45] <blahdeblah> URLs
[04:04:56] <blahdeblah> I use subclipse, and i've got an update source for it in my Eclipse config.
[04:05:05] <blahdeblah> Where is that stored, and what do i need to do to upgrade it?
[04:06:41] <rcjsuen> Not sure where that is stored, probably somewhere in configuration/
[04:07:09] <rcjsuen> There's a setting to tel lEclipse to check for updates, I've never used it.

[04:12:53] <rcjsuen> jamescarr: What measures have you tried?
[04:12:56] <`m0> Hi, I have an organization issue, say we have 5 projects and some projects depend on other project, and external jars. How would I set that up?
[04:13:08] <`m0> I don't want relative paths
[04:13:25] <jamescarr> `m0: use a dependency manager, like ivy or such
[04:14:31] <nitind> `m0: Or set up build path variables.
[04:15:39] <`m0> I will look into that, thanks
[04:22:26] <jamescarr> rcjsuen: can you point me to docs on fixing permgen issues?
[04:22:37] <jamescarr> my google search came up empty
[04:23:38] <jamescarr> it happens like... as soon as I do something
[04:23:40] <jamescarr> lol

[05:04:51] <Dewi> (windows) I'd like to use eclipse on a machine where I don't like to run as an Administrator... from googling around I get the feeling this might cause autoupdate problems... should I just install my own personal copy of eclipse in my home dir?
[05:05:11] <Dewi> and by install I mean... unzip :P
[05:06:01] <Honk> or just update eclipse manually once a year or so :P
[05:06:13] <Dewi> well I'm thinking plugins and things
[05:06:32] <jamescarr> is there a way with eclipse J2EE perspective to have it take the jars in your buildpath and deploy them in the WEB-INF/lib dir when you deploy?
[05:07:09] <blahdeblah> How do you turn off comment spell-checking in the Java editor in 3.3?  I can't find any preferences in the Java section...
[05:09:05] <nitind> blahdeblah: Open the Preference dialog and type in "spell".
[05:09:07] *** SirBob1701 has joined #eclipse
[05:09:22] <jamescarr> isn't there an ant wizard in eclipse?
[05:09:37] <jamescarr> something where I just say "use this directory and make me a jar"?
[05:10:08] <blahdeblah> nitind: thanks
[05:10:39] <blahdeblah> nitind: It would be OK if there was some way to add to the dictionary easily, but right clicking the misspelled does nothing... :-(
[05:11:36] <nitind> blahdeblah: Ctrl+1.
[05:11:51] <blahdeblah> Of course - i should have thought of that.  :-)

[05:25:50] <Honk> no matter where eclipse is installed
[05:26:59] <rcjsuen> Plug-ins can theoretically be anywhere on your hard drive.

[05:54:24] <Dewi> Honk: mmm, I found some doco which seemed to indicate it will store things in my homedir if it can't write the program location... however the Update system isn't so smart, it just fails. But hopefully it won't get too tangled up and confused if I run occasionally as Administrator to do updates

[06:52:33] <Dewi> Honk: yeah, sorry. I guess I probably should have tried adjusting that 'location' field in the updater. It didn't click that I might be able to change it to anything I liked

[10:15:36] <bobslaede> of course ;)
[10:16:06] <bobslaede> but i find that eclipse is just really slow, is there something i could do to speed things up?

[10:37:15] <njbartlett_> bobslaede: Java 6 would be the fastest VM to run, but I suspect that's not the real problem. Have you checked there no other processes spinning out of control and eating your CPU cycles?
[10:37:29] <bobslaede> njbartlett_: yup
[10:37:41] <bobslaede> nothing out of the ordinary
[10:37:57] <njbartlett_> bobslaede: Is it just Eclipse experiencing the slowdown? How about other Java apps?
[10:38:08] <bobslaede> just eclipse
[10:38:38] <bobslaede> you see, my problem is that i use the Zend IDE for php. But that doesnt work with compiz, but eclipse does, but thats slow
[10:38:47] <bobslaede> either way i get stressed out :)
[10:39:04] <njbartlett_> Zend is based on Eclipse anyway, isn't it?
[10:39:23] <bobslaede> njbartlett_: just the new one, the old ones are standalone so to speak
[10:39:29] <njbartlett_> What version of Eclipse are you seeing the problem with?
[10:39:51] <bobslaede> this is 3.2 i think, one second
[10:39:54] *** HenryRT has joined #eclipse
[10:40:18] <njbartlett_> Hmm. Well you could try 3.3.1.1
[10:40:31] <njbartlett_> Still, it's pretty mysterious, I don't really know what else to suggest.
[10:41:32] <bobslaede> ok, i'll try the new one
[10:42:17] <bobslaede> ah, eclipse platform 3.2.2? does that sound right

[13:26:52] <njbartlett_> multi_io: Then you can just leave out the testing fragments when you package up the production application. The advantage of a fragment is it has full access to the classpath of its host bundle, even non-exported packages.

[14:32:38] <rcjsuen> ~tell drkwolf about api CTabFolder
[14:32:38] <KOS-MOS> drkwolf: org.eclipse.swt.custom.CTabFolder - http://help.eclipse.org/stable/nftopic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/reference/api/org/eclipse/swt/custom/CTabFolder.html
[14:33:19] <drkwolf> rcjsuen: i want to use mutli-tab  item iside ctabFolder

[14:33:46] <rcjsuen> Okay, so what's the problem
[14:34:48] <drkwolf> i'm looking for the widget that can do that
[14:35:15] <rcjsuen> I don't follow.
[14:35:29] <rcjsuen> You use a CTabFolder and CTabItem and you can achieve what a multipage editor does.
[14:39:50] <rcjsuen> drkwolf: The Platform uses a CTabFolder to implement a MPEP. No hacks were involved as far as I know.
[14:39:52] <drkwolf> sorry, i want a item widget that can have more than one view, i lookeed at azurues code & they implemented thier one widget for that
[14:40:09] <rcjsuen> Item widget that can have more than one view?
[14:40:20] <drkwolf> rcjsuen: my application is not  RCP
[14:40:31] <rcjsuen> drkwolf: CTabFolder is SWT API not RCP.

[15:53:36] <chevol> I am still having problems trying to export to a jar using Glade because of gktjni
[15:54:18] <chevol> because it links to libgtkjni in /usr/lib/jni

[15:55:15] <Carnage\> What's the way to go if I want to schedule a background job and at a specific point in time, when the background job has not yet finished its work, I want it to become a foreground job to let the user know that its result is required to carry on?
[15:55:57] *** dominikg has joined #eclipse
[15:56:15] <rcjsuen> chevol: Well, if it was in /usr/lib/ this probably wouldn't be a problem.
[15:56:47] <chevol> yeah I know but its an Ubuntu problem
[15:57:00] <rcjsuen> Carnage\: Don't think that's possible.

[15:57:14] <conan> :)
[15:57:17] <rcjsuen> If you want it on the foreground you need to call setUser in the beginning.
[15:57:25] <conan> look at nebula seems to be getting quite powerful now
[15:57:49] <Carnage\> rcjsuen: Hmm, but doesn't the JDT do simlar things like building in background and blocking when you want to change something?
[15:57:50] <conan> trying to figure out how or if I could use the ghantt modeller to some how orchestrate rules or or temporal CEP type stuff.
[15:58:10] <rcjsuen> Carnage\: I think the framework is handling that.
[15:58:26] <conan> btw does any one know if the nebula grid contorl allows row spans- the examples only show column spanning or a row (apart from  the header0.
[15:58:37] <Carnage\> Hmm, so you see no easy way to accomplish that?
[15:58:54] <rcjsuen> Carnage\: I think TodC might be able to help.
[15:59:11] <chevol> is there any way I can export native libraries or something to avoid this error?
[15:59:14] <Carnage\> rcjsuen: Lemme see, thanks ;)
[15:59:34] <Carnage\> TodC: Would you be so kind and message me when you're around, please?
[15:59:38] <rcjsuen> Carnage\: When all else fails, just debug in the code and see what's up
[15:59:46] <rcjsuen> chevol: Try putting the libraries in your jar, that might work.
[16:00:50] <chevol> rcjsuen: tried that to no avail
[16:00:59] <rcjsuen> chevol: ask in ##java
[16:01:03] <rcjsuen> how to bundle native libs with a jar

[21:14:48] <rcjsuen> I mean, based on your experiences...
[21:15:06] <vwegert> rcjsuen: I don't really have anything to add. The EMF generated editor works, unless you happen to do stupid things that break it - which is basically what I did.
[21:15:31] <rcjsuen> vwegert: Well, if you could just read over the answer to the question, just to see if it sounds right.
[21:15:43] <rcjsuen> I've done it before, so it obviously makes sense to me.
[21:16:01] <rcjsuen> Not a very useful FAQ if too abstract / high level / low level / whatever / you know what I mean.
[21:17:19] <vwegert> rcjsuen: Perhaps just a word about the editor input (bad idea to mess with it because the platform relies on it to find the correct editor"?

[21:25:28] <rcjsuen> Is that even possible
[21:25:31] <vwegert> nope
[21:25:44] <edrin> rcjsuen: that's the question
[21:25:52] <edrin> rcjsuen: it's like this:
[21:25:59] <rcjsuen> vwegert: That's what I thought.
[21:26:08] <vwegert> unless using something like http://www.objectteams.org/
[21:26:33] <vwegert> and even that is more like weaving-annotating
[21:27:19] <rcjsuen> edrin: Maybe you should rethink your design. Or maybe use another language (if some other language supports this, I don't know).
[21:27:33] <edrin> i do: myObject = new TheClass(); myObject.update(); -> then it could happen: myObject instanceof TheDerivedClass == true

[21:28:40] *** kelaouch1 has quit IRC
[21:28:50] *** kelaouchi has joined #eclipse
[21:28:52] <vwegert> edrin: You'll have to use something like the adaptable concept - or throw away and recreate your instance. You can't change the dynamic type of an instance once it's created
[21:28:59] <rcjsuen> That would kind of make instanceof checks pointless. If I checked it earlier, then I use it a bit, then I try to cast later, then it fails? o.O
[21:29:37] <kirkt> edrin what if update() returned an object of derived instead ?

[21:32:52] <vwegert> This Object Teams stuff is cool, btw - in a demo session, Stephan added some code that prevented a certain type name from being used in the JDT create class dialog - without even touching the original code, just by weaving his changes in at runtime.
[21:32:56] <vwegert> kirkt: Preferences?

[21:45:09] <rcjsuen> Adding a preference page doesn't really do anything.
[21:45:21] <rcjsuen> Not unless you actually write the preferences to disk.
[21:45:32] <rcjsuen> Are you trying to write workspace settings or what
[21:46:07] <kirkt> yes it says, on clayberg's book, that it would use the Prefrences API

[21:46:34] <rcjsuen> well, if you feed it an IPreferenceStore
[21:46:48] <kirkt> yep, i'll read this chapter first
[21:47:05] <rcjsuen> Use the template that the preferencePages extension point provides and the rest should be straightforward.

[22:05:17] <rcjsuen> great to hear

[22:08:39] <shk3> showing a certain page?
[22:08:47] <shk3> from an rcp application
[22:08:59] <rcjsuen> ~tell grEvenX about plugins
[22:09:00] <KOS-MOS> grEvenX: Look for plug-ins at the Eclipse Plug-in Central (http://www.eclipseplugincentral.com/) and EclipsePlugins (http://eclipse-plugins.info)
[22:09:39] <kirkt> should i use plugin-specific configuration (like which classes to use etc.) that is out of the user's reach in the preference store too? or make a separate textfile/xml config of my own ?
[22:09:52] <rcjsuen> shk3: Can't you use the Help APIs?

[22:11:56] <grEvenX> rcjsuen: I have looked, but the sftp plugins and stuff I've found doesn't work with Eclipse 3.1 >
[22:12:25] <rcjsuen> grEvenX: I think most people just use TM these days.
[22:12:37] <rcjsuen> Did you ask the phpeclipse guys what they use?
[22:13:17] <grEvenX> I think they had most stuff locally, and used a versioncontrol system to commit it to the server after testing
[22:13:33] <grEvenX> but some of my projects can't be done locally

[22:15:40] <shk3> no
[22:15:51] <shk3> hoped it would be possible
[22:15:54] <shk3> still
[22:16:02] <rcjsuen> Are you talking about like clicking question marks in wizards and how it opens a help extension on the dialog?
[22:16:23] <shk3> yes
[22:16:36] <rcjsuen> But you want a new shell to open?
[22:16:53] <shk3> that's what eclipse does by default, I think
[22:17:02] <rcjsuen> Eclipse extends the wizard dialog actually.
[22:17:21] <shk3> thinking about it ... it's a bit like a context sensitive help
[22:17:25] <shk3> never tried that in eclipse
[22:17:26] <rcjsuen> shk3: http://www.streambase.com/collateral/images/english-us/articles/javatoolkit/csHelp.png
[22:18:47] <shk3> hm, I don't have a wizard actually
[22:18:58] <shk3> I have an intro page and want a link to the help on it.
[22:19:13] <rcjsuen> But you're talking about something like that, right?
[22:19:27] <shk3> the intro page is supposed to have a button or image
[22:19:32] <shk3> which opens the help
[22:19:48] <shk3> like the user goes to to help contens
[22:19:49] <rcjsuen> http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/tools/eclipse/newandnoteworthy/wikisearch.png
[22:19:54] <shk3> and chooses a topic

[22:25:34] <Daetur> working with RAP
[22:25:56] <rcjsuen> add a view?
[22:25:59] <rcjsuen> You mean show a view?
[22:26:20] <Daetur> actually i would prefer add, if thats somehow possibly after creation
[22:26:54] <rcjsuen> Define "add".
[22:27:48] <Daetur> ok the program has a perspective and in it two views, now I click and close that view, and on the click of a button I want to add another view
[22:28:18] <rcjsuen> How do you define "add"
[22:28:23] <rcjsuen> It just gets added to the view stack
[22:28:27] <rcjsuen> But is not brought to the front to the user?
[22:28:32] *** rahul_ has quit IRC
[22:28:47] *** ijuma has joined #eclipse
[22:28:50] <Daetur> just like its done in createInitialLayout in the Perspective.java
[22:29:26] <Daetur> creating a folderlayout, adding a view to that
[22:30:14] <rcjsuen> That is essentially synonymous with showing the view.
[22:30:27] <rcjsuen> Unless it is any but the first, in which case those are stacked.

[22:32:45] <rcjsuen> I don't know how you'd get the current layout though.
[22:32:56] <rcjsuen> Because that would mean you're screwing with someone's configuration.
[22:32:58] <rcjsuen> Which would be baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad
[22:33:16] <Daetur> well its my configuration I am screwing with :)
[22:34:20] <rcjsuen> anyway, try the showView method
[22:34:23] <rcjsuen> I think it'll do what you want.
[22:34:28] <rcjsuen> as for positioning, i don't know aobut that
