Masoud Kalali's BlogSwing ArchivesA New Module for Netbeans IDE , an statistical CVS Reporter...Posted by kalali on March 07, 2006 at 01:01 PM | Permalink | Comments (4)2 weeks ago I was looking at www.sourceforge.Net for a utility that allows me to get some statistical information from CVS repositories. There are some commercial products that do this job in a very perfect manner , but those are commercial and feature over loaded.after some search I find VCS Report , I get the package and get some chart from my CVS repositories. Some days ago I get the source code of the project and looked at the source ,Amazing , it uses a NetBeans library to connect to CVS servers , but there is no NetBeans plugin available in the download section , so I start and create a plugin for NetBeans , although it is in very early step and throw some exceptions some times but it works fine with NetBeans . I will put it in my UC in next few days after i make sure that i change it to comply with NetBeans in some acceptable degrees. so far I create a TopComponent that contain the reporting stuff ,you can View image . Now Configuration system (saving and loading your previous settings) and CVS setup dialog are ordinary swing dialogs instead of NetBeans specific dialogs, indeed these are exact clone of original VCS Report dialogs. CVS setup dialog is like :
Password request dialog for CVS is like :
Current Feature of plugin Comply with VCS Report features , and sure the plugin will contain all features that VCSreport implements in future as soon as possible.
i made this post because i am looking for some comments from developers who have knowledge about CVS internal mechanism. so if any one from the community have any suggestion , then let me know. I will add it to my ToDo list for future releases , and sure try to use your advice / comments , i will be more happy if my first release has more useability. A Simple Netbeans Module , a Gmail Checker...Posted by kalali on March 04, 2006 at 01:15 PM | Permalink | Comments (0)Some times ago I participate in NetCat 50 - a process for NetBeans IDE version 5 QA -During NetCat I find that NetBeans RCP is something that I can Pick for later Swing based clients. I start learning NetBeans RCP platform during NetCat 50 , and to evaluate my learnings I write a simple Module for NetBeans IDE . The module is a GMail Checker , Module make it possible for you to see your new emails within your IDE and allows you to rotate between subjects. I write Down a Tutorial on building NetBeans Module and as a Case study I showed how user can build GMail checker him/herself. To build that module I used another Open Source project , http://g4j.SourceForge.Net, which is Java library to access GMail service. After installing the module you will see a new toolbar in your IDE , the toolbar will be like following image :
by clicking on toolbar , it will start connection to Gmail. a NetBeans Standard progress bar will show the the progress in IDE bottom line
a NetBeans Standard progress bar will show the the progress in IDE bottom line
after it fetch information from GMail it will show you a something like
which tell you how much new email you have , and how much space of your GMail is occupied Now you can allow GMail Checker to rotate between subjects or do it yourself using provided buttons
You can configure the GMail checker Options trough Its configuration panel which is an standard NetBeans configuration panel. Configuration panel is something like the following image.
I set up an update center for my further NetBeans module , right now , you can check this UC and get your GMail Checker from there. http://www.Solarisict.com/updates.xml If you prefer to install the module from your local drive then , you can download all in one archive which contains all required modules for GMail checker. you can get the source code for GMail checker from NetBeans web site , this archive contain all source code , sound files and images that I used to build this module the link to get the zip archive is here To add a new update center to NetBeans IDE and many other NetBeans Tips and tricks take a look at Geertjan Weblog and for more NetBeans related information look at another big blog , Roumen Weblog A Simple Netbeans Module , a Gmail Checker...Posted by kalali on March 04, 2006 at 01:15 PM | Permalink | Comments (0)Some times ago I participate in NetCat 50 - a process for NetBeans IDE version 5 QA -During NetCat I find that NetBeans RCP is something that I can Pick for later Swing based clients.
