One rarely know feature of Bioclipse is that you use it to run R code. This functionality has been around for a while from experimental, and recently updated to use rJava by Carl. In the next months we will improve passing around data between Bioclipse and the R session, providing a richer chemometrics experience. And, with a bit of luck, it will be part of the upcoming 2.6 release.
Why you don't reuse StatET? It provides a great R integration for Eclipse.
ReplyDeleteThat looks really neat! I'll see what it can do for Bioclipse, which has a manager approach to integrate various functional libraries, but the least we are likely to use is the R file editor.
ReplyDeleteHi Egon,
ReplyDeleteIs the R plugin functionality available under EPL? We would like to use it in a workbench we are developing for synchrotron science, http://www.dawb.org.

Yes, it is, with generally the exception that GPL extensions are fine too, overcoming an incompatibility between a pure EPL and GPL. This exception explicitly allows GPL plugins to use the EPL plugins.
ReplyDeleteThe source code can be found here:

(Please forgive me/us if we are a bit sloppy with license/copyright information in features, and you are kindly invited to file bug reports for instances where you believe such info should be added at http://bugs.bioclipse.net/.)
BTW, dwab.org looks really cool!
