Work Completed
- Continued exploring the features of Eclipse e4, got a simple SWT demo working with databinding that I will post to a blog soon. The major feature shown off is writing and eclipse application using the new application framework (based on Eclipse Modeling Framework - EMF) and it shows off using CSS to style the User Interface.
- Started working with more of the e4 demos that are available that highlight the new features coming in e4, including SWT cross compiled to Flex, XML Windows Toolkit (XWT), and the other demo showing off CSS and some other new features coming in e4. I have already ran the e4 contacts demo which showed some of the CSS features and the e4 photo demo.
Work Planned
- Explore more of Eclipse e4's new features, get the demos working and write small sample demo's to learn more about using the new e4 features and to display features not demonstrated in their simple demos. Most of the demos I have been trying to get compiled are here.
