16 Sep 2004: Castor Plug-in for Eclipse v2.0.0 released: The second incarnation of the plug-in is built on Eclipse 3.0 and wraps the Castor Source Generator as an External Tool. It provides a launch configuration dialog with a GUI for Castor's command-line options. The generator is then launched as an external Java process. Castor runtime libraries are packaged in an independent, self-contained plug-in (org.exolab.castor), with a Java classpath variable (CASTOR) pointing to their location. Additional features are planned for future releases. To download, please visit http://xdoclipse.sourceforge.net/presence/projects/castor/download.html . (0 comments)
