Hi,
Whilst IDE integration is great, I was thinking about netbeans from a
different point of view.
Using it as the gui framework rather than writing tools for creating EJB's.
(Afterall we are 1.1 compliant - let the others make the tools to make
EJB's and we can run them, let's focus on our stuff. The others arent going
to make a gui for us...)
These were some of the concerns that were raised earlier
>>a) adding the right-click popup menus to tree nodes;
>>b) adding tooltips almost everywhere;
>>c) make the menubar dynamic, so that any new plugin (but not only, for
>>example also certain menu items should be disabled if you are in a certain
>>context of the application) can add-remove-disable menu items (so we can
get
>>rid of the Action menu in a non-usual position; it took me a while to even
>>decide to click on it, and then discovering there was a menu behind)
>>d) adding facility that provides items communications on events (for
example
>>if I disable a feature, then that menu item should be disabled, that
>>checkbox also and that button's text should become something else)
>>e) adding internationalization (I mean a GUI whose labels can be displayed
>>in different languages)
Using an IDE framwork that already caters for most of these could save a
lot of time. I know that rational was going to be basing there Java Tool off
the netbeans source base, to get a head start. I am not intimate at all
with netbeans....

ok, but are you ready to put some time in it? if so I will put you in
contact with the Kawa people and see if they are serious about it.
"scratch your itch", if it is not an itch, don't...
