Would anyone know if it's possible/easy to strip down Eclipse or Netbeans to its bare core (project tree + code window) and run it as an applet in the browser? How-to hints appreciated.
PS: it's for a simple online IDE

A:
Regarding Eclipse, I don't think this has been done.
If it is possible, this would by by using Eclipse RAP (Rich Ajax Platform), which actually allows existing RCP applications to be run as Web applications with only minor changes.
The actual work would be to integrate JDT features within custom project viewer and code Editor.
