[RomaFramework-dev] R: R: Plugin-based development in ROMA?

[Luca G. <luc...@as...>]

Hi Ted!
I'm very glad to hear news from you. The View Aspect is the more complex
aspect between all others.

I'm excited to see the very first version of your Eclipse RCP Aspect!

Ciao, Luca

Hi All,

I have completed a simple extension to the ROMA menu demo that =
dynamically
extends a menu by adding actions to the menu class at run time.
This demonstrates that ROMA can indeed be extended by plugins.

It turned out that what I wanted to do is in fact amazingly easy.  I =
just
created a new 'aspect' that added the new action to the menu.

The entire code for dynamically adding a menu item at runtime is shown
below.
The code adds a "help" menu item to the main menu of the menu demo.

I'm very impressed by ROMA.=20
For my next prototype I will attempt to create an Eclipse RCP view =
aspect
that is capable of running the BLOG demo.

Best Regards,
Ted Stockwell
