UX items from Doug
- I'd like to talk about the UX improvements we made in Momentics that we'd like to push upstream. I think they'd greatly help all users of the Eclipse IDE but especially CDT. The improvements include:
- ToolBar clean up where we removed everything but a new ToolBar that helps managed launch configurations and builds for those configs.
- New Project wizard which is a much nicer experience than our CDT wizard.
- Kits. A bag of settings for the various build, debug, and other tools that make up a software development kit.
- Also, something I've been doing mainly on the side with the help of others is Eclipse on JavaFX which offers a great new Java based UI framework. Should have a demo of that by then.
