RE: [ULC-developer] Extending Visual Editor 5.0

Hi Peter,

 

The palette shows up only if ULC Libraries class path container is in the path of your project (using Add Library..).

 

You could add your widgets to the existing palette ulcbeanscats.xmi under "\eclipse\plugins\com.canoo.ulc.visualeditor_5.0.1\palette" directory. Note that plugin version number in directory name in your case could be 5.0 or whichever version you are using.

 

I am not sure if you can add your jar files to the ULC Libraries container.

 

(I will try this and let you know. Perhaps we should find a way to make the container editable if possible so that other jars can be added)

 

You can  add your jar file to the Java Build Path using Add External Jar or Add Jar.

 

Just try this and let me know if it worked.

 

Thanks and regards,

 

Janak

Subject: [ULC-developer] Extending Visual Editor 5.0

hi,

 

I'm trying to extend ULC VE (adding custom widgets to the palette,

custom cell editor, ...). I had no problem following the general tutorial

"extending the visual editor tutorial" to extend the "normal" visual editor.

now I'm trying to extend the ULC VE.

 

is it really necessary to create and register a "classpath container" ?

isn't it sufficent to just add the right jar-archive to the build path

in the project ? my modified palette is not showing... :-))

 

thanks & best regards,

peter
