I'm writing a J2SE desktop application that requires one of its components to be pluggable. I've already defined the Java interface for this plugin. The user should be able to select at runtime (via the GUI) which implementation of this interface they want to use (e.g. in an initialisation dialog). I envisage each plugin being packaged a...
I'm looking to have a couple of plugins in a Flex project I'm working on. I know I can load a SWF using the SWFLoader, but I thought in Flex3 you can now have Runtime Shared Libraries or something. Does anyone have any good documentation on loading a plugin at runtime? Ideally I'd like to be able to load a plugin from a URL, then execute...
I'm not looking so much for language-specific answers, just general models for implementing a plugin system (if you want to know, I'm using Python). I have my own idea (register callbacks, and that's about it), but I know others exist. What's normally used, and what else is reasonable? What do you mean by a plugin system? Does Depend...

I'm a big fan of the Jadclipse plugin and I'd really like to upgrade to Eclipse 3.4 but the plugin currently does not work.

I'm running into a problem associating an invoked method in a plugin I'm writing with the appropriate plugin instance. The documentation at http://developer.mozilla.org/en/Gecko_Plugin_API_Reference/Scripting_plugins doesn't give enough information to be truly useful on this. In a nutshell, I'm trying to understand just which scriptable...

I've been working on a project that had every element on the page with a subtle drop shadow, we started using RUZEE to do the shadows but there was a severe performance hit when you had more then 4 or 5 shadows being calculated on the page. I went to writing my own...
I've evaluated some plugins from official IntelliJ repository, but none of them seems to provide more then basic syntax highlighting. Even highlighting is limited. For example, Database Navigator doesn't highlight IF. It would be great to have proper highlighting. And if it would have auto-complete feature and provide file structure view...
I am developing a collection of plugins on Eclipse 3.4 (official) on both mac and a PC. At present (I'm aware it is not the best practice) some of my common plugins export all of their packages. The problem is this: many of the listed packages are empty because subpackages are not, for example: prefix.core may be empty while prefix.co...

Or even better yet would anyone happen to know of a...

I haven't been able to find any parameter for it in the PDE or site.xml The only thing that I've seen is to let it generate and then manually ...
