[ANN] EclipseMozilla RCP Component
Thomas Derflinger
EclipseMozilla (http://www.eclipsemozilla.org) has released the first
milestone of its browser component.
It can be used to embed the whole Mozilla rendering engine in Eclipse
RCP applications.
As such you get a great open source browser component that works on
Windows, Linux, and MacOS for your RCP application.
Thus, Mozilla is further spread to the Eclipse world!
Feedback is greatly appreciated.
Thanks and best regards,
-Thomas Derflinger

This functionality has been available for a while.

I'm unclear as to why you implemented it in a new way?
Or are you using the code we already wrote?

EclipseMozilla completely embeds Mozilla. That means you do not need to
have any Firefox or Mozilla pre-installed on the system.
So you have some plugins that contain xulrunner.
The advantage of that is that you have complete control over the browser
you want to use in your RCP application.
Also, EclipseMozilla contains an editor with back, forward, refresh
controls and an input line to enter the URL, just like a real browser.
That´s another thing the SWT browser component does not provide.
Also, we plan to enhance EclipseMozilla with more functionality in the
future (see
http://eclipsemozilla.netcipia.net/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Milestones)

Is it possible to replace Internet Explorer with Mozilla as internal
Web browser in the Eclipse IDE on Windows this way?

Well at least the print was big enough I could read it without my
glasses. ;-)
If they had cut it down to normal text all would have fit likely on 3
pages.

It is possible, but not yet developed.
But it should be no big issue programming a small plugin that replaces
IE with Mozilla in the Eclipse IDE.
Actually, I also have thought about doing that but so far did not find
the time to develop that.
