Re: [forge-dev] Forge 2 Eclipse Integration - Update

I'm on forge-dev so don't worry ;) first comment - why isn't this a branch in jbosstools-forge eclipse repo instead of a separate repo tied to forge ? (I assume we'll need both Forge 1 and 2 support in the eclipse integration ?) And just hook the starting on forge into the same place as it is today would make sense would it not ? /max On 04 Jan 2013, at 19:05, "Lincoln Baxter, III" <lincolnbaxter(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: > Adding Max. > > > On Wed, Jan 2, 2013 at 4:00 PM, Lincoln Baxter, III <lincolnbaxter(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: > Hey All, > > We've started working on the Forge 2 Eclipse UI integation - please see the latest work here: > > https://github.com/forge/forge2-eclipse-ui > > Forge is booting and running from Eclipse (currently rigged up through "New -> Forge Addon", just so we have an easy way to start the runtime.)

Menu, hotkey, etc? (I personally favor the CTRL-4 shortcut to bring up a forge command selector menu, like what currently is done in JBoss Tools. > That's all for now. This is all a prototype so now is the time to fix things if they need to chance. Please send your feedback!
