Eclipse Plugin is now RCP Enabled
---------------------------------

         Key: FOR-594
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-594
     Project: Forrest
        Type: New Feature
  Components: Tool: Eclipse config  
    Versions: 0.8-dev    
    Reporter: Anil Ramnanan
 Attachments: org.apache.forrest.030805.zip

Eclipse 3.1 now allows you to easily create Rich Client Platform applications 
out of existing plugins. I have enabled the Forrest plugin to generate an RCP 
application. This now allows us to create a standalone product based on the 
plugin. 

I think this is important to do since the plugin is becoming more functional, 
at some point it may be useful to create a standalone application that will 
allow users to create and manage Forrest project through an IDE. With the RCP, 
it is now simply a matter of clicking on the forrest.product file and 
generating the application. 

What still needs to be done is the definition in the RCP's perspective of the 
views, editors, wizards etc that need to be included in the application.
