Re: [jboss-as7-dev] birth of "console ui" in eclipse
IMO it's pretty lame to work on three different, redundant efforts:
- the web UI
- the CLI UI
- the eclipse UI
I can somehow understand the CLI UI, but i think the best approach for eclipse would be to
embed the web UI. Maybe with a different layout. Something that fits better into the
overall frame. But technically it should be possible to reuse the web UI.
I keep hearing the term "like JMX console" over and over again. If you think
that power users require something more generic then the full blown web UI, why not build
it within the console itself? And then use it embedded within eclipse?

for "older" AS's where you can do edit operations etc.
but for now we just do this "baby" raw console as a read only operation and see
where it takes us.

there's not much there on the Eclipse side:

The "baby console" was just a POC demonstrating the possibilities.
