[gentoo-soc] Gentoo/Java IDE integration Weekly report #5

[Jiale Pan (Kyle Pan)]

Hi all

------------------project introduction--------------------------------
The project includes an improvement to current java-config and a new
eclipse-plugin. The plug-in, which when clicked, lists system installed
java libraries for users to select and import into projects. This avoids
user manually browses and locates system installed libraries, making
developing more efficient and comfortable. The existing tool
java-config, with some necessary improvements, is chosen as the data
retrieval backend of this project. Jython is used to integrate
java-config to the plug-in.This project will mainly benefit developers
using eclipse, and due to planned work on improvements to java-config,
it will benefit java-config project and even non-developer gentoo users
as well.

----------------progress of this week --------------------------------

1. Added a "Gen Lib" entry to java project's "Add Library" page
2. implemented the "GenEclipse Lib" main UI page
3. populated package's names and descriptions retrieved from Jython part
of code
4. modified java_config_2_api.py to return pkg list in
list_available_packages() for calling in Jython
5. changed wrapper's api according to Serkan's suggestions

------------Plans for next week -------------------------------------
the next week's plan is to try to add the filter and let the entry
checkable, and try to add the selected ones to the CLASSPATH of the project.
