FileTemplate Creation

I ended up getting it working by clearing the plugin-sandbox cache.  I'll post more on this in the morning - time for sleep now.

Hello Shaun,

If you're targeting IDEA 8, you shouldn't implement ApplicationComponent
on this class. Instead, the recommended way is to register classes implementing
the FileTemplateGroupDescriptorFactory via the ]]> extension
in plugin.xml.

I'm at wits end here.

I have the following structure

/src/fileTemplates/j2ee/OCPForm.java.ft
/src/fileTemplates/j2ee/OCPForm.html.ft
I have a class that implements FileTemplateGroupDescriptorFactory and
ApplicationComonent and registered in my plugin xmlwith the following
code

public FileTemplateGroupDescriptor getFileTemplatesDescriptor()
{
FileTemplateGroupDescriptor groupDescriptor = new
FileTemplateGroupDescriptor("OCPHelper Descriptor",
OCPHelperConstants.FRY_ICON);
groupDescriptor.addTemplate(new
FileTemplateDescriptor("OCPForm.java"));

return groupDescriptor;
}
I don't ever see this run though. I'm also unable to createClass with
this template. What else am I missing here? I've used most of the
code from the DevKit. Not sure what else i need.

I wl be targeting 7 at first with a few people on 8.  I have implemented it as an APplicationComonent so far.  Do I need to implement this as the extension for this to work in IntelliJ8 as well or can I leave it as is?

Registration as ApplicationComponent works in IDEA 8, but it may stop working
in future IDEA versions.
