Iam attempting to try and contribute a fix that would allow MacVim and Eclim(http://eclim.org) to work together. I have a thread started in the Eclim Google group(http://groups.google.com/group/eclim-dev/ browse_thread/thread/4324a6de13f9b60d). It summarizes well what is the current hang up. In Windows and Linux, Eclim has a hack working that allows embedding of gvim in Eclipse.
Currently Iam trying to figure out two important details: 1. We need to see if we can grab a handle for the container that will house the embedded MacVim. Currently, (and I don't know how they figured it out for the other platforms), I don't even know what the handles name might be, since Eclims method uses reflection to get it. My current step is to see If I can through reflection, discover the Mac handle name. Once that is obtained then I can obtain the id. (if it even exists) 2. Next I would need to be able to pass the id in through the command line to MacVim so that it can embed. At this point I may just be on a wild goose chase, since Im not sure if it is possible on mac to embed like I am trying to do. But as long as the eclipse version being used is the Cocoa release, there should be no incompatibilities between it and MacVim. I would appreciate any input as I see this functionality as being extremely useful. -- You received this message from the "vim_mac" maillist.
