Wireframesketcher how to#

I’ve tried connecting the snap-control interface and it does seem to solve the printing issue.

But until then classic is probably the way to go.Īlex, thank you for the tips. I believe that once Eclipse IDE can be made to use strict confinement, all others Eclipse RCP/SWT apps can follow and be made to work the same way too. Printing wireframes and exporting them to various formats is the main task of WireframeSketcher so fixing these issues is a must.Īs I see it, to make strict work might requires a deeper understanding of snap, and also might require some changes in the Eclipse platform which I am not in position to make. There are various dbus errors in the console that probably have something to do with the way dbus is being used in SWT.

However there are several things that didn’t work out of the gate: printing, launching files in external viewer (for example opening a PDF) using SWT API, installing new plugins break the application completely. Using gnome-3-28 extension I could launch the application.

I did try to see what would it take to make strict confinement work, but honestly I don’t have enough know how to do it. In any case the application works well with classic. Since Eclipse uses classic confinement, I believe the same arguments apply to WireframeSketcher to prefer the same confinement. There is a snapcraft.yaml for Eclipse already, and I’ve used it as a reference for creating the snapcraft.yaml for WireframeSketcher. WireframeSketcher at its heart is a reduced version of Eclipse IDE. It is already packaged and distributed as a deb/rpm/tgz package, but I wanted to try to provide a snap package too. It’s a Java based Eclipse RCP application. I am the author of WireframeSketcher wireframing tool.
