Abator Status

[Gregg Bolinger <gd...@gmail.com>]

I just recently discovered ibatis after returning to ibatis.  I really like
it.  I am using the IntelliJ plugin.  However, there hasn't been a new
Abator release in over a year and the plugin is missing some features that
the XML config allows.  What is the current status of Abator and the
plugin?  I was considering writing my own GUI on top of the XML config but
didn't want to re-invent the wheel.

Thanks guys.  I'll check out the source of both and go that direction then.

The IDEA plug-in is in it's infancy - if you see features that would
like added to it, or find bugs - let me know.

Feel free to check out the source (it's pretty simple to work with)
and tweak it to your heart's content.

The guy who originally wrote that plug-in is still involved with it,
and is pretty amazing at turning around changes, so if the source
looks scary, email one of us and we can probably help you get rolling
on it (or just do it).

The plug-in docs still pretty much suck. There are many features that
aren't totally documented. Again, getting the source may help you see
what's there, and also help you come up with more ideas about what it
can do.

I'm not sure what the IntelliJ plugin might be, so I can't comment about
that.

There have been quite a lot of changes to Abator since the 1.0 release.  You
can build Abator yourself from source very easily and use it with Ant in
nearly any environment.  The documentation in SVN is also current.

I hope to do another release of Abator and the *Eclipse* plugin near the
beginning of the new year.
