Flex Builder / Eclipse IDE / WebFOCUS API
Greetings,

I've started playing around with Adobe FlexBuilder (actually FlashBuilder in my case) and I really like the Eclipse IDE. It's a pretty slick development environment.

Are there any (not sure of the correct term here) syntax plug-ins for the FOCUS language that can be used in Eclipse?

I do not have Flex Enable licensing so I do not have access to the Flex API provided by Information Builders. However, is it possible to use the WebFOCUS API in Eclipse? I literally just downloaded the WebFOCUS API documentation so perhaps I'll be able to answer my own question in due time.

Does anybody know of any potential 'gotchas' or issues that I should watch out for while pursuing this?

Thanks!

Dan

The WebFOCUS API is a client connector and requires a license.
