Hi Keith,

sounds great!

Can you update the wiki page with the ideas you wrote in this mail. Can be interesting for the plugins for other IDEs too.

Compared to Eclipse, X-Develop is cool indeed. A lot more has to happen to make me switch from IDEA, thou... Speaking about IDEA and RIFE, I remember Keith Lea
planning to write some sort of plugin to ease the development of RIFE
applications with IDEA.

Things like navigation from element declarations to implementations and vice-versa would really make development a lot more fun than it currently is. If we (RIFE users) could develop plugins for IDEA, X-Develop, and god forgive me, Eclipse with the same set of functionality, that would be *really* something.
Keith, are you there? Do your plans still stand up?

I've actually started writing a plugin for IDEA. The first order of business is plugging RIFE site structure into the Ctrl+N "go to class" popup (see http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/features/ navigation.html), so I can type ctrl+n and then a URL of my site (like /account/edit-links), to jump to that element declaration.

Future plans include
- completion, ctrl+click navigation, and error-highlighting of values and blocks in things like Template.setValue calls. - actions like "go to template" and "go to element declaration" and "go to element implementation" and "go to site", which will allow quick navigation from, for example, an Element class, to the template(s) it uses
