I have added another branch (called plugin) to cvs and added my plugin code, also all export (to sql file and image) and import (from DbDesigner4) is migrated to the new plugin system.
The menu right now is not "correct" there are just changes so that there is now 3 options (import, export to file and export to image)
Instead of providing one menu entry for each export /import option it is...

This is a feature request for a way to group the tables into different colours so that one colour mean one thing, another colour mean another, this can be usefull when different tables canot be grouped physically into a region but still belongs to the same grouping.
For example changeing the background colour on the box behind the table name could be a way to handle this. So that the table...

Load a schema from an excisting database. As DBMS it should support postgres and mysql at first, later other systems.
First a simple feature implementation should be done, later this should be put into a plugin.

After looking over JCL (Jar class loader, http://jcloader.sourceforge.net/ ) I think it would be much closer to our usage then what JCF would be, it is cleaner simpler implementation
However to bea ble to get things working, I think we need also to create a seperate project, and API project full of interfaces that the plugins can intercat with. Mainly this would be the plugin interfaces...

I must say that I have already started wit this, once I get an idea in my brain I have a hard time letting it go,and I´m also a person hat is more interested in creating a "infrastructure" (and code that implements that infrastructure) :-)
right now I have created a PluginManager, the interfaces for ExportToFile, ImportFromFile, but all the stuff regarding classloaders are missing... the...

I think we should first implement the intended features and then think about a plugin architecture to enable a general plugability for features.
The problem is not the plugin stuff, the problem is the integration of those stuff in the software, because possible features should be integrated on all places in the system. And we should then enable those plugins on a lot of places.
But we should...

Plugin Framework for EasyDesigner
To be able to support diffrent extension/plugins (import/export) without hard coding each plugin to the system, we need to be able to dynamicly load plugins into the application so that we can just «copy» the plugin to the correct location and it will load at startup..
Now I have looked at the JPF (Java Plugin Framework) and I´m not sure that it is usuable...

I´m thinkng of looking at Java Plugin Framework(1) regarding this, so that we have a clear and extendable way to dynamicly including other export (and import) so that others could create import/export plugins for this.
1: http://jpf.sourceforge.net/
LGPL license, so it should not be a problem for easyDesigner
what do you think?.
