I am trying to extend windows builder toolbar.I searched a lot but just found this: http://help.eclipse.org/kepler/topic/org.eclipse.wb.doc.user/html/NewComponentsTutorial.pdf
Outside the fact you do not ask for any question, any google request or basic tutorial will guide you to such thing.

is there a way to make a Status-field display like an dropdown/select-box instead of radio-buttons? I have about 10 status' and I would like to display them as a dropdown instead.
I wasn't able to find anything about this in the documentation, did I miss something?
Thank you in advance!
Not the "core" status interface, but you can duplicate the code and create a custom one in a select instead. The new interface would go into the custom extensions directory in the API. Should be pretty straightforward.

I'm looking for some documentation of the new Xcode Source Editor Extensions in Xcode 8.
As far as I can see there is only the "documentation" found in the header file for XcodeKit. Would be great to get something that's more detailed and more official.
Very preliminary XcodeKit reference documentation is now available.
Our WWDC 2016 presentation introducing Xcode Source Editor Extensions remains the best walkthrough.
The very shortest version, however, is: Because App Extensions need to be embedded in an application, you need to first create a new macOS Cocoa Application, and then add a new Xcode Source Editor Extension to that application. Then the XcodeKit reference should help some in implementing that.
Not really a documentation but a good reference also
https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2016/414/
Extensions, at the moment, are poorly documented. There are a lot of assumptions made (for example, did you know that you can execute the container app? Yup, it’s really nice for settings GUI - see this How To Execute Container App - Second Answer)
At the moment, there are a lot of things missing: for example, there isn’t a structure that shows the corresponding lines with the data object - though this is quickly created with the following code:
var matches: [NSTextCheckingResult] = []
do {
let regex = try NSRegularExpression(pattern: "\n", options: [])
matches = regex.matches(in: completeBuffer,
options: [],
range: NSMakeRange(0, completeBuffer.count))
}
catch {
}
This gives you the location of all the \n’s - you should be able to fill out the rest to give you starting and ending positions which should match up to the lines.
All in all, there is a lot to like about the extension, but there are quite a few things missing as well.
Currently the only available documentation is in the headers; there's nothing "unofficial" about them. If you have specific questions, please ask.
How to show Quick Help for the methods which we wrote ...?
Like for inbuilt function when we right click on it & Click Quick Help then we get all info about that method like that I want to do for user defined methods so that any one come to know that method takes which parameter and each parameter for which purpose?
For more explanation, see these two images:
Here is a solution for that. Also check apple documentation. You might have to create document set and install it in Xcode.
Edit: Here is another similar post, How do you populate the Xcode 4 "Option+Click" popover?
There is an open source tool called appledoc which helps with this. You can provide your own documentation in the header files and then run the appledoc script which will (depending on your settings) generate the docsets, install them into Xcode, create a HTML for the documentation as well as rss feeds so that changes to the documentation can be published.
I have been googling this subject for hours. Does anyone have an examples of a custom plugin being deployed in Dijit's Editor. I'd be really interested to look at it because I have been following this without much success and of the few examples that exist out there none of them come with working examples :(
(I'm looking to create a pulldown menu like the one for font selection)
There's no difference between a custom plugin and a "builtin" plugin, so I suggest just looking at a small builtin example like TabIndent, and then move on to the font selection itself.
Since Xcode 4, using BWToolkit isn't really easy. In fact, it's not even possible in IB.
Is there some sample code out there how to create a "preferences-type toolbar" without BWToolkit?
Yes, MVPreferencesController as used by Camino. See here for Doxygen documentation. It displays NSPreferencePanes registered using a plist. It's pretty easy to work with and customize for your purposes. You can also use the Camino project as a source of sample prefpanes.
