Wiki access for Jonathan Gallimore:
-----------------------------------
AFAIK know the pending issue here was that Jon needs to submit
a CLA by fax or postal mail which he did. Jon, could you be so kind
and double check whether you did send the CLA already. David B. and
I were not able to find your CLA on file. Maybe, if you sent a
facsimile you could glimpse through the records of sent facsimiles
of your fax machine regarding whether the CLA facsimile did yield
some kind of error.
I sent in a CLA by mail early in April. I guess it didn't make it. I'll
try and remember to fax it tomorrow.
If this action item has been solved you should be all set regarding
writing a wiki article about the OpenEJB Eclipse plugin.
Generic design for a plugin foundation infrastructure:
------------------------------------------------------
I once suggested to generalize most of the plugin stuff into something
I called OpenEJB Plugin Foundations. I will be looking into IDEA
IntelliJ till end of may to figure out how plugins are done in IntelliJ.
After that I think it would be possible to refactor the current plugin
logic into a more generic module that can be re-used by both an Eclipse
and an IntelliJ plugin for OpenEJB.
I've done some refactoring to create a plugins-common module, and also
made a start on an IDEA plugin. I did however (after getting a basic
plugin working) discover that IDEA 7 already has a feature to generate
EJB3 annotations (its on the right click menu on the XML editor when
ejb-jar.xml is open) - I'm sure you can imagine my disappointment!
I was going to submit two patches, one with the refactoring to the
common module, and one with the work I've done in Idea already, (I guess
we need to decide whether to continue with this in light of finding this
feature in IDEA 7).
I'll try and get these patches into Jira this evening.
Cheers,
Jon
