Thanks George and Koen for mocking out the Eclipse UI functionality so well that when I got the Forge runtime bit working, this was possible without any code changes!

I expect we may still have problems with enums, but for now... as long as we avoid any Final types in the interfaces, and stick to using interfaces, it should be tolerable :) --- Lincoln Baxter's Droid http://ocpsoft.org "Keep it Simple" On Jan 17, 2013 6:18 AM, "George Gastaldi" <ggastald(a)redhat.com <mailto:ggastald@redhat.com>> wrote: Yes !!!!

Possibly... I didn't know you supported that. Right now we are working on getting a base PoC working, so if you want, take a look at this repo, it would be the place to start: https://github.com/forge/jbosstools-forge/tree/forge2 If you think Metawidget makes sense here, we can think about using it. If it works, it might be beneficial since that would mean we'd effectively get a number of UIs for free (web as well.) To fill you in on where we are, we are building dynamic UI based on metadata from Forge 2 UICommand and UIWizard instances: https://github.com/forge/core/blob/2.0/ui/api/src/main/java/org/jboss/for... So it could be a good fit. Please feel free to play around and let us know what you find :) There are still quite a few things in this API that will likely change as we discover what does/does not work. So more feedback is good. ~Lincoln On Thu, Jan 17, 2013 at 3:36 PM, Richard Kennard <richard(a)kennardconsulting.com <mailto:richard@kennardconsulting.com>> wrote: Would you guys find Metawidget useful for this?
