Version 12

    JBoss-IDE Architecture

    JBoss-IDE is split into small modular units.

     

    Map

    The current plugin map is (release 1.3.x) :

     

    Plugin

    org.jboss.ide.eclipse.xdoclet.run

    XDoclet generation per project configuration

    org.jboss.ide.eclipse.xdoclet.ui

    XDoclet UI for icons

    XDoclet icons (all UI will be moved here later)

     

    Each main functionality is split into two or more plugins. It follows the implicit convention of the Eclipse plugins, which tends to isolate UI from Core functionalities. For example, the org.jboss.ide.eclipse.packaging.core plugin contains the model and all persistence classes, and the org.jboss.ide.eclipse.packaging.ui plugin contains all the dialogs and panels needed to interact with the packager. This rule of separation is to be enforced to keep the structure clear.
