Hi Johan,

Are you using Helios as your target platform or are you trying to build with Helios against a Galileo RCP target?

If you’re trying to build against a Helios target I have noticed some differences that required changes in the build script. I’ve been meaning to post these online, but I’ll email you the new sample projects.

Hi,

I’m using the PDE build script from your example but experiencing problems with Eclipse Helios that I did not encounter in Galileo. The problem manifests itself as false positives reported by the Hudson CI tool which used to call the Ant script in order to build code. Initially I thought this was a Hudson problem and documented the issue here: http://issues.hudson-ci.org/browse/HUDSON-6969. The resolution of that issue claims the problem is due to Ant errors not properly propagated, which I cannot understand since I’m only calling the one Ant target below:

Any ideas? Thankful for any thoughts about this.

Comment on Using FormEditor with a single page by Patrick

Hi idiotgenius,

Glad you found this tip helpful. As for saving, form editors rely on AbstractFormParts which generally map to form sections. Form parts are registered with the ManagedForm controller and then notified when a save has been requested (commit method is called). You can take whatever action you like in the commit method.

The PDE editors can serve as a good example here. Check out the org.eclipse.pde.ui source bundle and examine the source code.

Hope this helps,

— Patrick

Thank you for this sample of using PDE. I struggled with getting a build to work, researched the web for several days. I came across your example through one of my searches and had my build working in about 2-4 hours. I struggled with a few error messages. Today I figured it out by comparing what you had to what my build had. That was extremely helpful. I just wanted to say thanks for developing and sharing it so freely.

Thank you so much for publishing the missing puzzle piece. I was looking for it after reading the article Prakash wrote. And especially the progress indicator on the status bar.
