Egon - yes the latest version of Dave's CMLRSS feed reader I think is still http://usefulchem.blogspot.com/2006/08/cml-rss-reader-in-java.html

One thing that would already help a lot is a proper XML editor. The Eclipse Web Tools Package has a very good one (syntax highlighting, visual error reports, autocompletion, a tree view and a 'plain text' view, ...), but that has not been available as a separate tool sofar... let's see what Eclipse RCP 3.3 does in this respect... Additionally, I plan a (RCP) Forms based approach, or maybe a simple table based approach for a non plain text XML editing, but a GUI for adding and editing feeds. Help is always most welcome and *much* appreciated. > So I favour the > traditonal idea of a feed with a fairly short list of back items - > e.g. last 30 entries.

I hope to see that integrated into the CMLRSS reader in Bioclipse. :) > I am convinced that we should promote Bioclipse as the rich client > and I think that it could work well for NCI.

A growing number of cheat sheets are being written to guide new users through available functionality, and we are exploring to use these as testing framework... > but then the CMLRSS could be very exciting.

Thus NCI could have a > "submisson" feature, or a "latest compounds" CMLRSS feature. Please check the below Bioclipse wiki page to see which features are being set up. Use of this RCP technology is really very new in Bioclipse, and was started only 3 weeks ago, so there are still some rough edges. The idea is that a 'feature' defines a minimal set of 'plugins'. The plugins provide the actual functionality, and the feature defines what functionality is required to perform a specific task. So, you can expect a CMLRSS feature, which will extend the core Bioclipse with just that functionality to allow CMLRSS reading. Another feature example would be the structure elucidation feature, which will likely even be split up in NMR based and MS based CASE. One feature for each of them. This allows users to get a Bioclipse interface tuned to what they need to do. Of course, you may install all features you like.
