SpringRCP IntelliJ SimpleApp

Yesterday I was going through this SpringRCP Tutorial. It is looking quite promising. My only real problem is that the only plugin available is for Netbeans and I use IntelliJ's IDEA for all my development. So I set out to see what it would take to get the very basic SimpleApp working from IDEA.

It wasn't too bad really. I've made the SimpleApp source with IDEA project files available here. To keep the file size down I didn't include the JAR files but here is a list of all the ones you need just to get the SimpleApp to run:



You can get all these JAR files plus everything else you need for full SpringRCP development from the SpringRCP Project Site.

What you don't get is all the plugin features that Netbeans provides. Hopefully as SpringRCP becomes more mature and if it is successful someone will do me a solid and provide a plugin for IDEA.


Re: SpringRCP IntelliJ SimpleApp

Gregg, I was reading the Spring docs and came to realize their AOP support could be helpful (potentially) in solving the data binding issues we've run into with Beans Binding on the Java Swing Builder. Does Spring RCP offer any out-of-the-box features that overcome the shortcomings of Beans Binding and make databinding painless?
