I'm trying to write a plugin to include the IE browser in a tool window

via

an open source IECanvas.dll components.

>

This components exposes the IE browser as a java.awt.Canvas object.
It works fine in a popup window, but not a toolwindow. I suspect the
problem may be the mixing of heavyweight components in a lightweight
container, but it could be that I just don't know something about the tool
window API. I've trying defering the registration of the tool window, but
nothing seems to help. This would be a helpful way to preview HTML
pages/JSPs.
Another option I guess would be to use the new Editor window api instead.

Anyone have any thoughts? I basically get a windows access exception when
the component is first exposed, so I suspect maybe something's not getting
back to
the backend dll, but I don't know anything about windows components/dlls.

Duane, I believe Eugene Belayev has already done this in his Begregator
app and has posted some comments/code on his blog a while back, you
might want to look there first.

As i understand it, the Open API is not open enough to do it right now,
so he has to have a special build of idea, which is no good. So while
he wants to do it, he's as restricted as we are.

OpenAPI since 915 is good :)
I already create plugin as my Custom Editor :)
Eugene was wait for ability to add custom editors in IDEA, so now it avaible
:)

See ImageEditor for example
Thanks!
