The plugin so far only adds ECS's own
features to Eclipse (constructing markup
files like HTML or XML)

Plus I am currently working on some minor
enhancements (or bugfixes) of ECS like
the problem that it ignores the codeset
in the XML result:

XMLDocument xmdoc = new XMLDocument(1.0,false,"ISO-8859-1");
produces
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
[...]

instead of
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" standalone="yes" ?>

Or does anybody know what ELSE the "codeset" should produce
in ECS and where to set the "encoding" for the resulting file?

The primary task for the ECS plugin is currently being
a common (reusable) part for OTHER plugins that e.g.
create XML files from various sources (e.g. databases)

There are plenty of propriaroty solutions and parsers or
generators for something like the DB-XML problem but we found
e.g. our special one requires a more sophisticated data collection
than the ones around and ECS serves as the builder for the XML
tags around it.

One could also use it to generate other forms of XML
e.g. deployment descriptiors for EJB or even Eclipse itself.

Eclipse, is an editor www.eclipse.org I believe it is the foundation for
IBM's WAS product.  I don't have a problem with adding it to the ecs
distribution but contrib.'s is probably a better place for it.  I haven't
played around with eclipse much what does the plugin actually add to
eclipse, and is it somewhere I can get to it to give it a try?
