How does the JDT do it? We want to select the file system in the New Project Wizard. I thought there already was a UI element for this somewhere. I've done this before in some earlier testing, but forgot how I got it done. JDT doesn't. You can specify the FS when creating a new generic project, but this is done in the platform so has access to internal packages. Actually if we subclass the WizardNewProjectCreationPage for our main page, wouldn't we get this functionality for free? I see that we used to in the old NewCProjectWizardPage. This may actually be a CDT issue. Funny enough I hacked the CDTMainWizardPage to subclass WizardNewProjectCreationPage and I can visually see the selection of the file system. There may be other things that don't work since I end up in NPE hell (but that's mainly because I didn't hack enough). It is curious why we don't subclass like this. I'm sure there is a valid reason. Moving this to CDT since I think we have the opportunity to clean this up. What if I just want to get the list of file systems, say to display in my own dialog? Maybe I don't want to use the new project wizard at all. There is still no way to do this with the current EFS support, so I think this is still a platform problem.

I figured once you had the file system set for the project that you didn't nead to go through the selection again. Feel free to unjack my hijacking of this bug ;) Re-hijacking for its original purpose. See comment #1. Bouncing back to Platform Core. This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant. |
