Build

To build Jeeeyul's Eclipse Themes, Some tools and dependency plugins are needed:

Tools:

• Xtend
• PDE-Tools

Dependencies:

• SWTend (Xtend libraries for SWT, It provides abstraction of graphics and creating UI)

How does it works?

JThemeProcessor installs E4 Addon ActiveThemeTracker. It traces active theme chaining, and what if Jeeeyul's Eclipse Theme is activated then it will re-write css through RewriteCustomTheme. It uses Xtend template to generate css with JThemePreferenceStore as a input. Generated CSS uses set-tab-rednerer as JeeeyulTabRenderer that renders part stacks.
