I'm trying this out now... :)
I'm curious - should we continue to install with CFUnit - or move to
MXUnit?? Is CFUnit still being developed??
Or should we strip these out and let people install them on their own??
Should we update the wiki with info on "DocShare" ????
Jim
I'm not sure what the status of CFUnit is, but MXUnit is teh bomb.
> Or should we strip these out and let people install them on their own??
I don't even use the CFUnit view anymore, so... eh. Whateves. One
less thing to maintain.
> Should we update the wiki with info on "DocShare" ????
Yeppers! Probably only a few people will be interested at first, and
it's still fledgling tech, but we'll see more of this stuff probably,
so... and it is sorta in your face as an optional install, probably
wouldn't hurt to explain it. =)

Yeah! So far 3.5 / 1.3.4 is working great. The column selection mode
is worth the update!!!!!!!!
Jim
I'm glad the text selection stuff is working. Wasn't there a way to
control the looks of the selection? With my color combo I can barely see
the squiggly lines.

FYI, I am running Eclipse 3.4.2 and I just upgraded to CFE 1.3.4, but
I do not see the above mentioned key binding change. For me, ctrl+3
still works, and additionally ctrl+shift+H does not work. This suits
me well, however, because I am used to ctrl+3. :)

You can also select a column of text:
form.one
form.two
form.three
And type something and it will replace everything in the column:
request.one
request.two
request.three
Jim
Think that switch is only for 3.5. CTRL+3 doesn't seem to work for me.
CTRL+SHIFT+H really sucks because that requires two hands on my ergo
keyboard. Will have to assign that to something else :)
Jim
Yeah, I meant to leave that as a box instead of squiggles, as both
those seem easier on the eyes with that color.
FWIW, I sorta stuck some stuff in there (didn't modify it for CFE yet)
that we could use to do the "mark occurrence of current CF word", so
it would work how the java one does... meaning you don't have to
double click the words -- I keep forgetting to just look at the
source for JDT. Screw most everything else (DLTK, yadda yadda).
Although I still might try some more stuff like that, JDT move the
fastest... (duh, right?)

Hrm. Me no see that locally. Did you restart with -clean?
If not, and you can, send me the file and we can try to see what the deal is.
I forgot how much I missed those selection toggles, thought about you
while fixing them back up (notice they work in folded code now too?
;]).
Whoops! Almost forgot to mention changing the mark occurrence color!
It's under "Annotations" and it is called "CFML Mark Occurrences" I
think. I should put a note in the preference screen.

Not me, I've missed them badly ever since the default went to using a
dot as part of a word. Seems like especially the last few days.
Many thanks to all who made this happen. It made my day.

But for me, after I add a site, and try to connect, it freezes Eclipse.

Hrm. I tested it on a wanky windows FTP server, and an sftp server,
and the only way I could get the wanky FTP server to work was to
enable those checkboxes (or enable disabling them). Probably has
something to do with passive mode... did you try it on and off?
I was hoping adding this timeout deal, would prevent a lock, but guess not. :-/

That autohotkey sounds like what I want to turn the text selection
stuff into sorta.
It's pretty close to being able to do the same things to text
selections (just using the keyboard), as far as word selection, but
the whole "shift plus alt does this", and "alt alone does that" deal
bugs me, I'd rather have the keys/selection actions be determined by
the user, and turn-on/turn-off able... looks like I could even use
the text widget that the "keys" preference pane does, with some work.

Excellent recipe! Know exactly where it is.

The text/tag selection was a little bit challenging, due to code
folding, and removing the DoubleClickStrategy had the interesting
side-effect of changing what things were considered words /before/ the
double-click even happens... or something kinda strange like that.
Seems pretty solid now tho, neh?

hehe! My feelings as well. We needs us some major refactoring, but
we've got the "meat", as in workflow and whatnot... and when you know
what you want, well, it's usually easier to get it than if you don't.

This is another one of those things (along w/CFUnit) that maybe we
shouldconsider ditching?
There are two FTP plugins (in addition to Aptana) listed on the wiki:
# CollabNet Webdav, ftp, sftp Client
# Remote Systems Explorer (RSE) - Remote projects, FTP/SFTP
Has anyone who uses FTP tried these?? IMO the more stuff we can trim
from CFEclipse that is available as external plugins, the more we can
concentrate on core features and fixes??
Jim
I just went in to try that. My own server needs Passive turned off.
The other server I put in is less finicky, but doesn't work either.
I noticed that CFEclipse isn't saving the checkboxes. I would uncheck
Passive, click Save, then go back into the edit settings area, and the
Passive box is checked yet again.
Rob

If it's so close to working, why trim it? It seems like there shouldn't
be much work to have it fully functional.
Plus, for many, if ftp worked, CFEclipse would be the only plug-in they
would need. Heck I would only need that plus SQLExplorer, and I'd be set.
On the other hand, if it did turn out to be a lot of work to make it
work, then trim it as long as the others do work. I just did a couple
quick searches for the Webdav one and haven't found where to get it yet.
I'll keep trying.
Rob
Because there's no point wasting resources on something that will
never be as good as a dedicated ftp plugin.
> Plus, for many, if ftp worked, CFEclipse would be the only plug-in they

No it wouldn't. There are several default plugins bundled with each
of the various Eclipse editions. (My point is, avoid confusing
"downloaded package" with "plugin")
The better solution is to pick one of the existing dedicated FTP
plugins and bundle it with CFE - this gives you a single packaged
download, with a superior FTP plugin, and -- because time isn't wasted
on a CFE-specific FTP -- a better CFML editor too.
(This is one of the key benefits of Eclipse, and Open Source / Free
Software in general - the freedom to build the perfect toolset by
mix-and-match of your preferred components, without being forced into
a specific vendor's implementation.)

CFE itself should work* with any of them, so long as they're 3.3 or
higher (might work with 3.2, didn't try).

I've been pondering about that recently - what's the deal with
checking out and building?
There's a big wad of projects at svn.cfeclipse.org - which ones are
required to get going?
Is everything else then contained & obvious within that, or is
anything else required?
So far, Galileo and the latest cfeclipse are working great for me as of
yesterday and today.

I've been using the eclipse stuff, but they're more on about EMF than
UML so much.
I like this one a lot too: http://bouml.free.fr/
Modeling is where "it" is at, IMO, and the tools are "getting there",
but it's still not for the timid.

I took a UML class in school, and my take away was that it seemed like
a LOT more work than the benefits it provides. Don't get me wrong,
I'm all for project planning and documentation, but I think there are
other methods and tools that accomplish the same goals but don't have
so much overhead. </2 cents>

Well, I am not a project manager nor business analyst, but the ones I
work with seem to do pretty well with Microsoft Visio, Microsoft
Project, and other miscellaneous tools. Personally I don't like MS
Project, but I've had a lot of fun with Visio. On the project that
I'm currently working on our BA uses Visio to create use case
diagrams, data flow diagrams, etc. Seems to work pretty well.
I guess I should backpedal a bit...in my class in school we learned
UML using Rational Rose, and that is what I was not very impressed
with (too much overhead). So in my muddle headedness (I'm sick
today), I think I was confusing UML with Rational Rose...different
things, really. :)
It's still working for me.
Source control!
I do *occasionally* use Beyond Compare as a workaround (because our
SVN can be really slow). BC can do comparisons over FTP, and is
superior to the standard Eclipse comparison view - unfortunately it's
a separate app not an Eclipse plugin though.
I've tried the following with no success:
C:\program files (x86)\eclipse\eclipse.exe -vm "C:\program files\java\jre6\bin\java.exe"
What am I missing? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Since you can run BeyondCompare from the command line and it has a
small scripting language, it's possible to integrate it a little bit
through Run>External Tools. How you can make this work depends a lot
on your individual situation.
I'm trying to work out how to best use it but at the moment my project
setup script creates a bat file that will start BC with the project
directory on the left and the destination directory on the right.
I can setup External tools to run the bat file that it finds in the
current project directory.
It could work better but it saves some of the hassle.

Sounds silly but I can't seem to get this plug-in to install. Is it simply a matter of adding it to the CFEclipse plugins directory and restarting?

I've had it installed for a few days. I went back to CFEclipse
yesterday. I got tired of ALL the tags (html, cfml, whatever) being
red, and the method for assigning colors is horrible.
Add to that the Aptana-esque style of the editor. It takes forever to
shut off all of the "helpfulness" like auto-insert everything, insight
this and that, validation this and that, parsing this and that. I just
had enough and went back to CFE. It just works so very well. The ONLY
thing it's missing IMO is FTP... but we've had that discussion here
before. ;)
Now... if you're the type that wants to utilize the various wizards and
server features, the CFBuilder probably rocks. But I don't know how to
use those, or really what the benefits are. I just want a nice editor.
ROb
See, this is my main concern with DLTK/WTP... they add overhead.
Other editors use 'em tho, and don't seem to all be beasts. *shrug*
With enough contributors contributing, we wouldn't need something like
DLTK-- we could do it all "by hand"-- tho there's some cool stuff in
there...

> I'm considering the idea to actively support CFEclipse.
We'd love to have ya. We're just a rag-tag team of "when we have a
chance" contributors, but new blood always seems to pump us up for a
bit. It's a super fun cadre, you'd be in good company.
This info should get you to the submitting patch stage, if you're down:
http://trac.cfeclipse.org/wiki/BuildingCFEclipse
And here's a link to the team project set, for checking out the source:
http://trac.cfeclipse.org/raw-attachment/wiki/CheckingOutCFEclipse/cfeclipse.psf
You can check out the nightly build site separately, which has an ant
script for pushing builds to the update host, all easy-peasy styles,
too, when you get that far.
We've tried to make it easy to get involved, and a new contributor
would be some more motivation for fleshing out the docs relating to
the actual IDE code, which is, well, an adventure at times due to it's
history.
Adventure, hooooo!
