I found EclipseShell http://eclipse-shell.sourceforge.net/ to be particularly useful for messing with the RDT model, because it allows to work with a live RDT at runtime. Here is a screencast http://eclipse-shell.sourceforge.net/screencasts/rdthelpersEclipseShell.html that might be useful. I think I used SymbolIndex there too; (Disclaimer: I'm the maintainer of EclipseShell). BTW: have you considered prototyping your code in JRuby? Might be a problem with performance for live update things, but if your code can be run by the Builder, a little speed downgrade wouldn't hurt too much. While it'd probably be best to write the whole code in JRuby, there are a few problems, like the fact that you can't extend a Java class from JRuby (I think you wrote something about extending one of the JRuby Visitors in your Blog). murphee -- Blog @ http://jroller.com/page/murphee Maintainer of EclipseShell @ http://eclipse-shell.sourceforge.net/ _______________________________________________ Rubyeclipse-development mailing list Rubyeclipse-development@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rubyeclipse-development
