Hi Martin and Aral, I would like to help out with this as well. Martin, please post what you have found on the plugin tutorial that you did, that has been a nice way for me to get my feet wet with the whole Eclipse plugin development thing.

I also have finally made the move to eclipse 3.1 so i'll be checking through that simple plugin tutorial i wrote to make sure its still the same..and updating it where necessary. i'll write the next part soon, which will cover bundling swf's with plugins rather than pointing the browser to a place on your HD and anything else useful i can think of (ideas are welcome) also, that JSwiff project looks like it will be a useful tool in our armoury. :) martin _______________________________________________ osflash mailing list [email protected] http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/osflash_osflash.org _______________________________________________ osflash mailing list [email protected] http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/osflash_osflash.org
