Tools for Forge Roadmap and Ideas
---------------------------------
Key: SEAMFORGE-29
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SEAMFORGE-29
Project: Seam Forge
Issue Type: Task
Reporter: Koen Aers
I want to open a discussion about the JBoss Tools integration. The baseline of this
integration is the Forge Console currently available in the JBoss Tools SVN repository.
Evidently a whole bunch of improvements and additional features need to be implemented. I
would be good if all the ideas around this could be gathered in this issue and result in
new tasks.
I'll start off myself by giving a list of functionality that I think should be
included.
(1) normally, pressing the tab character should result in Forge suggesting the list of
possible commands; this is not working currently
(2) the usual colors you get when running Forge from the command line result in garbled
output in the Eclipse Forge console; we need to find a way of getting this functionality
up and running in Eclipse
(3) after performing each Forge command, appropriate actions need to be performed and
feedback needs to be given to the user; this feedback will be highly dependent on the
particular command;
(a) e.g. after creating a project the project should be imported in the workspace
(b) e.g. after creating an entity, the created containing folder needs to be refreshed
and the file opened
(c) e.g. after creating a field, the field needs to be selected in the open editor
(4) imo, it doesn't make sense to perform Forge commands outside the Eclipse
workspace; therefore, i think it should be made impossible to cd out of the workspace
folder; similarly, a pwd command should probably be rooted in the workspace root.
