Script Operator Made Easier?

wessel

Dear RM Developers,

I'm a big fan of the Script operator.
But it always takes a long time to do things, because there is no code completion or error highlighting, etc.

Is the user-friendliness of the script operator likely to change in the future?

On a side note, I always use Eclipse to edit scripts, and then copy paste to Script Operator Editor.

Best regards,

Wessel

Can potentially do an SVN checkout and create a class Foo in the default package.
But it will still do tons of errors because I think eclipse SVN checkout is not doing Groovy?
Or maybe it is doing Groovy but it can't find anything on the Operator Input?

import com.rapidminer.example.Example;
import com.rapidminer.example.ExampleSet;
import com.rapidminer.operator.Operator;

public class Foo {

@SuppressWarnings("unused")
public static void main(String[] args) {
new Foo();
}

static Operator operator;

Foo() {
ExampleSet es = bar();
}

private ExampleSet bar() {
ExampleSet es = operator.getInput(ExampleSet.class);

for (Example e : es) {
e["att1"] = e["att2"] + e["att3"];
}

return es;
}
}
