The tree editor will be customizable by modules containing icons and customizers for a particular doctype. The customization will be done declaratively. For example, if you wanted to add an editor for web.xml files (doctype web-app), you could write a module that contained icons for the <servlet>, <init-param>, and <context-param> elements. And you could implement a customizer for <servlet> that, say, browsed the classes in your project. Your module would have a file that looks something like: <doctype name="web-app"> <element name="servlet" iconbase="/path/to/servletIcon"> <customizer class="com.foo.ServletTagCustomizer"> <property name="foo" value="bar"/> </customizer> </element> <element name="init-param" iconbase="/path/to/initparamIcon"/> <element name="context-param" iconbase="/path/to/contextParamIcon"/> </doctype>
Let these are considered while planning next release.

Checked into trunk on Nov. 28, 2002
This functionality is targeted to be a part of NetBeans 3.5 standard release. At this moment it is necessary to stabilize it fully, pass I18N checks, pass A11Y checks, pass UI checks and properly document it.
