[Mathlib-develop] Mathlib - Eclipse

[Alexander B. <al...@ni...>]

Hi all,

first congratulations to your great project and the new release. I am 
writing a Java (Eclipse based) application for measurements in 
scientific laboratories. I'd like to integrate JMathLib into the 
application allowing users to execute .m files with their measured data. 
By now I have a simple Eclipse plugin ready able to open scripts and 
interprete them. The graphical output will be made in an Eclipse Editor 
with an InternalFrame per figure. See 
http://www.alex-bieber.de/optsuite/mathlib-eclipse.png for a screenshot 
of the plugin. SVN: 
https://svn.nightlabs.org/svn/imtek/trunk/imtek.optsuite.jmathlib/
In order to redirect the figure creation I had to make some little 
changes to the GraphicsManager and the framework around it. The changes 
don't break the current functionality. I've extracted interfaces out of 
GraphicalManager(->IGraphicalManager) and FigureObject(->IFigureObject). 
Additionally I've added the possibility to set the GraphicalManager in 
the GlobalValues. See the attached patch for details and please consider 
adding it into the codebase. Although the Eclipse plugin is in the 
namespace and repository of the OptSuite project it can be used as is 
and might be as well added to the mathlib repository. Anyhow. thanks for 
your efforts in JMathLib, keep it up.

Best regards
Alexander Bieber
