[WIP] Bukkit Plugin Writer

I kinda copied the idea of another thread, but I put in a pull request and they didn't accept it or anything... so I am making my own from (more or less) scratch. If there are any legal problems with this, BPS, just let me know

Bukkit Plugin Writer

Bukkit Plugin Writer (BPW) aims to make writing Bukkit Plugins as easy as possible.​

​

If you are interested in helping out, feel free to fork it and put in pull requests Just make sure you update your fork regularly (link to github below)​

Note: This is just what it looks like at the moment, more is coming soon

​

BPW only supports Windows at the moment, however (when implemented) you will be able to debug and use the plugins on any platform​

Download

BPW is currently not ready to be downloaded, but you can check it out on Github -> link​

BPW only works on Windows (We *might* port it to Java once we have a more or less working prototype)​

BPW Will be compiled using Mono, so pretty much anyone can use it (I have no idea about an installer though.. this is not all going in one exe file, I know already its not possible)​

I am not going to put a link to the installer file just yet, I will compile that closer to when its done​

 

Have you actually tried it on a mac? Maybe it will work...
And awesome idea!

 

Sorry but it is written in a windows code, not java, it may work if you change some of the code and compile it on a mac but I highly doubt it'd run, sorry

 

Okay, this looks awesome

 

Thanks I can't work out why the installer works on my computer but doesn't on any other... maybe it needs to be compiled on the target computer...

 

Well, the installer runs and installs everything, but the exe won't run...

 

Great work on the GUI, what was it made in? I know It's Java, but more specific?

Darkedge.

 

Its written in C# to make Java plugins. Not written in java, only edits java

 

Ah. Any hints on getting the cool GUI?

 

I downloaded a trial thing, and have cracked it but intend on buying it when I get enough money Its from dotnettools

 

Good idea, but I think people will stick to their java IDE's like netbeans and Eclipse.
Also, you can port this to Mac and Linux using mono. Requires some work though.

 

Wow i wish i could help! I'm only now learning Java, and I'm developing my first plugin, so it'll be interesting to see this progress

 

I am going to need some help, if you can't code then feel free to put out suggestions

 

How are you going to handle the error coding and the compiling?

 

So far, no idea I'll have to do some serious googling

 

Pretty cool. Basically a java IDE make for bukkit plugins. Good idea. Don't forget to include the java doc for bukkit as well

Instead of using Visual Studio to make it, use MonoDevelop. It should make it work on Windows, Linux and Mac.

 

wow... did you get the DotNetBar2.dll from BPS?
if you did get the .dll and the idea from Bukkit Plugin Studio:
Wonderful! also please look into our code and use as much as you want, we can't work on it anymore since we are very busy with MCBukkit Manager

@Chrisward , btw just read the top thing on the post
no problems at all, as i said previously, use all of it that you want

Thanks I'm totally rewriting it

and I re-downloaded the DLL

the .dll for DevComponents is updated? btw, did you pay for it? it's 260$

 

I don't think so, and its kinda illegal

 

To be honest, I don't think people will use it if you say you used it based on illegal resources?

 

Il save up and buy it..is yours legal, @MCManager ?

 

yes, mitch bought it

 

Can I steak your dll until I buy it?

Steal**

you can use it, you don't earn any money with it.... i hope

 

looks like it might be handy i find it annoying when i start a plugin to work out package things to to write the plugin.yml

 

Okay, would you approve of donations to buy a new dll?
