After a busy few months in conferences I can finally get back to tidying stuff off my desk. So to start the ball rolling, I have released to RiaForge the server components for the SnipEx functionality in CFEclipse.
Its a pretty simple setup, 2 tables and 2 CFC's that make up the whole application. Once you have created the tables, just create a new entry in the lib table that defines your server, and then add any libraries you want to add (they are children of the root and you can make tree sets like this) and then start adding your snippets.
It should be pretty well documented as a server. To attach your server in CFEclipse, open the Snippets View, then click on the down arrow at the top of the view and click "Edit SnipEx Servers" and enter the URL to the SnipEx.cfc
I have also checked in the code into RiaForge so if you need to send me any patches just check out the code into CFEclipse from SVN.
Oh, and this is my little pressie to you all on my birthday!


And once again you amaze us all with your dedication :)
And thanks for the present
Sounds pretty cool. Allthough I ran into the following: Your corresponding riaforge page states that cfeclipse 1.3.2 is a requirement but I can't seem to be able to update to this version though.. Have I missed sometyhing ?
Thanks for spotting that!

Cant get it to work though. According to its log Eclipse throws a
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Argument cannot be null
When trying to refresh the tree..
let me know if you want the full stacktrace, and/or if you want me to file it as a bug somewhere.

Only as a last resort of course.
Have sent you an email.
... (but not today, its my birthday dammit, no coding!)
I'm going to blame Mark though. Somehow this is his fault....
Mark - when I added CFLib as a Snipex, I noticed in the UI I had a node w/ no title. Just a blank node. I expanded it and saw my stuff, but is there no way to title a snipex server?
LibraryHandler failed:http://www.cflib.org/snipex/snipex.cfc - org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Premature end of file.
When I check the url in browser, the xml comes out just fine . . .

If you have a public SnipEx server - please feel free it add it or send me a link.
