Osmosys SDK and Eclipse Visual Editor

Hello!
Does someone know if Osmosys SDK 2.0 can use the embedded Visual Editor in Eclipse?
Thanks in advance
Alessandro

I don't think it aims to be the best. It's not even close to working. You can do really simple things, and nothing more. And you can't first write the class by hand, and then switch over to the UI builder, and you aren't allowed to touch the code if you started in the UI builder. (This is how it was about a year ago).
The free
Eclipse should be very good at core features but also
be a platform for plug-ins. If it's too good at
everything it can't attract commersial initiatives.
If this has worked there should be a better GUI
builder for sale than the one you can get for free.
But I don't know if there is really.I haven't seen any good ones for sale, but I've seen that borland will build the next generation of JBuilder on the Eclipse platform, so I think that they will sell their UI builder as a plugin.

  • How to make jButton invisible but workable in Eclipse Visual Editor

    SOS, to all Programmers, thx for your attention i recently encounter a problem when i do my codings in eclipse visual editor, i can;t seem to make my jButton invisible, i plan to
    insert image then put jButton over them, make them invisible so i can just click the image and go elsewhere (E.g. a pop up box or link), but i try all ways and it can't work, plz spot the solution for me. thanks in advance.

    You can't click an invisible button, so you'll have to put the image on the button (as icon) or add a MouseListener to whatever component you're using to show the image.

  • Image in Eclipse Visual Editor

    I'm using the Eclipse Visual Editor and I want to have an image displayed on my application that the user could interact with (draw points on it). How would I do this?

    i'm trying to use this layout to create a simple gui.There's nothing simple (in my mind) about using GridBagLayout.
    I'm using eclipse visual editor, Personally, I recommend against using such tools as you don't learn how to hand code GUI layouts, and then run into brick walls such as the one you've bumped into.
    I can't figure out (and understand if it's possible) to reduce the size of column 1, so that the button in column 2 is just next the textfields.Since you are using a JTabbedPane your total panel size is dictated by more than just the column widths, it is also influenced by the needs of the JPanels or other jcomponents on the other tab pages. I'm not sure of a simple solution. I assume that you've played with the weightx values for your components.
    I added the button positioning the mouse at the right border of column 1, but i can't understand why column 1 took so much space, while column 0 just fit the labels inside it.Hard to know without the code. Perhaps the weightx values are different, but who knows.
    Any suggestions? ThanksHand code this thing if possible.

  • Eclipse Visual Editor-not working-palette no icons, no visual capabilities

    Hello,
    I installed eclipse recently with the intention of using it to lay out java components in my applications. I have installed GEF, EMF and the visual editor with the exception of the WEP parts, as eclipse said they had invalid licences. I have the problems mentioned in the title and eclipse does not bring up an option to install the WEP components of the visual editor any more. Does anyone know anything about how this could be fixed? Thanks in advance,
    Paddy.

  • Eclipse Visual Editor bug

    Hi everyone,
      I'm not sure if it's the right place to ask about eclipse problems, but since it should work on others linux distribution I'm assuming it's a Arch specific bug.
    So the story goes like this. I've installed Eclipse 3.2.1 an wanted to have Visual Editor in it. So I went throu the whole installation procedure ( Help -> Software Upgrades -> Find and Install -> Search for new features to install -> new remote server (http://update.eclipse.org/updates/3.0/site.xml) -> Visual Editor SDK 1.1.0.1 && EMF SDK 2.1.2 && GEF 3.1.1 SDK). And when I restarted eclipse there should have been New -> Create a new Java Class using the Visual Editor. But there is no such thing! I can make EMF projects, but there's none Visual Editor.
    Where I've made a mistake in an installation process? I'll be glad for a backup. Thanks in advance!

    Please download eclipse 3.2 with Callisto. if you are running eclipse without Callisto trust me its a pain to download the visual editor. i have tried it. Google for eclipse Callisto and then download eclipse which comes with Calisto and then download visual editor.
    Everything should be fine then.

  • Eclipse Visual Editor - no "Visual Class"

    I have installed the recent eclipse and eclipse-ve packages. Eclipse says that the Visual Editor is installed. It says the "Visual Editor" is of version 1.4.0 and that the "Visual Editor Property Sheet" is of version 1.5.0.
    As far as I understand, I should now be able to create a new "Visual Class" but this menu option is not appearing. Is there something I'm missing?

    Same issue here.

  • Eclipse - Visual Editor

    I use the eclipse 3.0 and I have installed the visual editor through Help -> Software Updates -> Find and Install...
    So I believe it�s installed correct, but I�d like to know what should I do to start it. I tried to change the perspective, there ins�t the visual editor option though.
    Does anybody know how to do that?
    Thx

    VE is not started as a different perspective but rather, as of Eclipse 3.0.2 I have installed, it will open a new perspective as you add a new "visual class" to your project.
    A problem I experienced during the initial installation is that Eclipse seems not to be able to build its configuration files all at once.
    The online documentation suggests, if you cannot see "Visual Editor" amongst all of the other installed plugin, to delete the following:
    /configuration/org.eclipse.osgi/manifests
    /configuration/org.eclipse.osgi/.bundledata
    /configuration/org.eclipse.osgi/.state
    and restart the program. This will force Eclipse to rebuild its configuration files.
    (Just to be more careful you could move them instead!).
    Hope this will help.
    Bye

  • Eclipse visual editor does not work.

    If I try to create a new visual class two error messages pop up:
    "IWAV0138E Remote VM terminated too soon. See .log file for trace of output."
    "An internal error occurred during: "Create Remote VM for Visual Editor for Java".
    IWAV0171E Could not create a socket connection to remote vm. This is often due to your firewall blocking access from your java to do local access."
    Here is the full error log: http://pastebin.com/m4c700db3
    I have no firewall enabled:
    core@c-laptop:~$ sudo iptables -L
    Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
    target prot opt source destination
    Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
    target prot opt source destination
    Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
    target prot opt source destination
    I've read that it could possibly happen due to incorrect /etc/hosts file. Here is mine:
    core@c-laptop:~$ cat /etc/hosts
    # /etc/hosts: static lookup table for host names
    127.0.0.1 c-laptop localhost

    192.168.1.101 serv serv
    # End of file
    Any ideas?

    I'm guessing 'c-laptop' is the name of your machine? My line looks different in /etc/hosts, I just added my name to the end and left the original domain:
    rob ~ $ cat /etc/hosts
    # /etc/hosts: static lookup table for host names
    #<ip-address> <hostname.domain.org> <hostname>
    127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost rob-thinkpad

  • [solved] Trouble installing android SDK and eclipse plugin

    Hi !
    Owner of an HTC hero, I would like to develop some apps for it. However, I have problems to install the android eclipse plugin on my archs (a 32 and a 64 bits) while it is working fine on my roommate's ubuntu...
    I'm following these instructions : http://developer.android.com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html
    At step 3, when I click OK in order to add the site, just nothing happens, the pop up stays displayed and I can still clic on the bottons, (but only "cancel" do something...) . I've tried to start eclipse from the console, but no output here
    Why do you think this happens ?
    I have also problem with the sdk tools :
    when I try to view the available packages il get :
    Failed to fetch URL https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repos … sitory.xml, reason: HTTPS SSL error. You might want to force download through HTTP in the settings.
    (even if I ask to use HTTP insted of HTTPS)
    Have you already got this problem?
    Thanks,

  • BO XI 3.1 SDK and Eclipse: import cannot be resolved

    I am preparing my Eclipse 3.4.1 installation to develop using the BO XI 3.1 SDK; I got some samples from the SAP Developer network, however, Eclipse always shows import errors like "The import com.crystaldecisions cannot be resolved"
    I added the paths "C:\Program Files\Business Objects\common\4.0\java\lib" and "C:\Program Files\Business Objects\common\4.0\java\lib\external" to my project (rigt click -> Properties -> Java Build Path -> Libraries -> "Add external class folder" button) but I am still getting these errors.
    I also tried Netbeans 6.5 but it shows similar errors: "package com.crystaldecisions.sdk does not exist".
    It's a BO XI 3.1 server installation.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks!

    Hi Stefan,
    Instead of adding the "Add external class folder" try out to add to your Java Build Libraries "Add External JARs"
    When you click on this button you can select the path of all the jar files from your Business Objects installation directory.
    E.g. C:\Program Files\Business Objects\common\4.0\java\lib"
    and "C:\Program Files\Business Objects\common\4.0\java\lib\external"
    Regards,
    Anu

  • SDK and Eclipse - are they the way for me to go?

    Hi,
    I've done a bit of reading and would just like someone to either steer me in the right direction on this or flatly say "No - Go back, you'll only enter a world of pain, flee while you still can".
    We wish to distribute a thin reporting client to a call centre, approx. 250 concurrent users. BO is strong on the User Admin side which we like. InfoView which could default to a particular report could in theory satisfy our needs. The problem is we don't wish to bamboozle the users (not in any way saying CSR in a call centre wouldn't be savvy enough to not to break it) and want to limit their view and what they can then do in this to be developed report.
    InfoView will allow each of the users to login to BO.
    Using SDK can I then configure our users experience/view of InfoView and then in combination with Access Rights basically only allow them to perform a very limited number if functions.
    What I'm really keen on creating is basically a form/display where the top toolbar has entries for inputs (query criteries) and the Display then return the entries matching the input criteria. Prompts are there or there abouts but just look n feel a bit clunky - a dynamic report that shows the Master data per row in a table then when you click on an individual Master Record the table expands (or something like that) to display the Detailed information associated with that Master record. 
    Also, I'd like to configure the CMC so that all but 2 or 3 of the tabs are allowed for the Call Centre Admin person to view.
    I like the way SDK will allow us to rebrand the tool.
    Should I use SDK - is it the only option that'll satisfy most of our needs at this stage?

    Hi Ted,
    thanks for the response.
    I'm not a java developer and am kinda hesitant to go down the SDK path.
    I'm hoping to build the report in WEBI, make available the report through InfoView, but you're saying I can't in anyway meddle with the InfoView GUI so as to make it more user friendly. OK.
    I was hoping there'd be a way to create a html layer that would better present the data (when I say better - InfoView just does more than we want our user base to view - since it may only cause difficulties)
    Have a look at what we're trying to achieve - I'd love if you could share with me how you'd think I should go about delivering such a reporting tool on the back of InfoView functionality.

  • Can't install Eclipse Visual Editor

    I'm trying to install Eclipse VE 1.0M1, but I cannot download GEF Build I20040330, which is a prerequisit for VE1.0M1. Does a mirror exist for this file? Or is another version of GEF an ok substitute?

    Are you using eclipse 3.0 or 2.1? If you are using 3.0, just get GEF version 3.0. Works a treat.

  • Eclipse and Visual Editor

    Hi all,
    I've looked for an eclipse forum, but this is the best I could find.
    I'm trying to get the eclipse visual editor plugin to work. I see it in Help -> Software Update -> Manage Configuration as "Visual Editor 1.1.0.1". However, when I right click on a package or project, there's no "Visual Class" in the "New" menu. I can't figure out why. Any ideas?
    Thanks.
    -Andrew Roth

    is the plugin properly installed ?
    there are 2 ways to check that
    1. Go to menu - Help\About Eclipse SDK. In the small dialog window that opens, one button will have "plugin". Upon clicking on it, you get a list of all the installed plugins.
    2. Go to the menu- Window\Preferences. The left pane will give info of additional features like the plugins
    Also, ensure that after installing the plugin, you start eclipse from command prompt using the following: Eclipse -clean
    hope that helps
