Since this morning (nightly build version 2.0.0.v200702221647) Spring IDE contains a first version of an XML editor extension that supports the flow namespace in the Beans XML Editor and - more importantly - the Web Flow flow definition file format.
If you are working with Spring Web Flow make sure to install that build and provide some feedback. As usual the build is available from our nightly build updatesite.
Here is a quick list of supported features:
- action bean name completion
<action bean="..." /> - bean-action bean name completion
<bean-action bean="..." /> - action method completion (follow action method signature)
<action method="..." /> - bean-action method completion (public methods, setters will appear, but with less priority)
<bean-action method="..." /> - state id completion for transition target state
<transition to="..." /> - type completion for the several attributes that take Java class names
<var class="..." />, <transition on-exception="..." /> - hyperlink navigation to Spring bean definitions, action methods and target state transitions
More, like the graphical editor and a validator, will follow over the coming weeks. Stay tuned. Also don’t miss the Beans Cross References View.
