Well, a couple of hours ago I added my thoughts to Robert's blog.
Frankly, this is a *mailing list* - if people have to say something
valuable, they should say it, let us discuss it here, and not make us
read and comment on that stuff externally.
Is there a list of outstanding issues with regard to WO development
on Eclipse?
There is jira, our tracking system:
http://objectstyle.org/jira/browse/WOL
Before you go there and enter bug reports, please check thoroughly if
they there isn't already a similar one.
(e.g. the reverse engineering
of the dependency between WOBuilder and XCode being open - I just
grabbed
that one from a quick perusal of the archive).
This one is not really solvable, and, given the current situation,
also a waste of time - most likely, its using PDO, not accessible
from java. And on top of this, WOBuilder is pretty much a POS anyway,
the current incarnation is totally buggy, slow and eventually eats up
files when it feels like it. Also, this WYSWIG thing is totally
overrated and mainly only useful for beginners, as you see exactly
nothing once your components get a bit more complex. Use CSS and
you'll be much happier...
The WOComponent editor that is in Eclipse is totally workable. It
even has important new features like the validation, which has saved
me tons of work so far.
If you really want or need WYSIWIG, I'd advise you to write some
DreamWeaver plugin with a pre- and postprocessor that translates
Tr : WOGenericContainer {
elementName = "tr";
}
to a <tr> tag, or something similar. This shouldn't be too hard, as
these plugins are done in JavaScript. David Teran wrote a proof-of-
concept in an afternoon.
Cheers, Anjo
