I suggest to add our Eclipse 4 application wizard directly the File -> New menu directly for the Plug-in Development perspective. Opinions?
AFAIK this is done on a per-perspective basis isn't it (New shortcuts) ? If the feature that defines the wizard also had a perpectiveExtension to add the E4 app wizard I'd be fine with that...
Since e4 is the default platform this makes sense to me.
I take this one. Reference: http://www.vogella.com/blog/2011/01/13/eclipse-papercut-7-adding-the-pde-plugin-creation-wizard-to-the-eclipse-toolbar/

Reference: > http://www.vogella.com/blog/2011/01/13/eclipse-papercut-7-adding-the-pde- > plugin-creation-wizard-to-the-eclipse-toolbar/ I've had a look at this page. If i understand it correctly the page describes how to add a new wizard to the toolbar, not to the menu. If we want to add E4 new project wizard to the toolbar, it will work fine. However from the description of the bug i understand that the idea was to add it to the menu, not just to put it on the tool bar. So the solution described by this link will not work. At least not out of the box, unless there is something else then "toolbar:" that can be specified in the plugin.xml for extending an menu. If the E4 new project wizard has to be added to the File->Menu and not the toolbar, i dont see any other possibility to achieve that but to change the Java class for that. Please let me know if there are other alternatives, otherwise i'll change the java class to solve this bug.
Created attachment 241274 [details] New E4 project in the menu
I believe I found some way to add E4 project wizard to File->New in the plug-in development perspective - see screenshot in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=389851#c5 Please check if I've done it correctly: https://git.eclipse.org/r/23937
Since the bug #441331 is fixed and the E4 project wizard has been replaced by a new plugin project with an 'E4 Project template', this bug should be closed ? Lars ?
@Olivier This bug is about placing the wizard into the "New" menu of PDE directly. @Dmitry I missed you patch. I am very sorry we did not react on your contribution. In the future please hassle us some more by pinging the bug if it is forgotten. I will comment on your change.

Thanks Dmitry. @Wim Olivier integrated the e4 wizard into the PDE template so we will soon retire the e4 project wizard.

I think this bug is about adding that into the New menu, which I like. Here is my comment on the change: There is a specific extension point called "perspectiveextensions" that you use. Use the newWizardShortcut. http://help.eclipse.org/luna/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc.isv%2Freference%2Fextension-points%2Forg_eclipse_ui_perspectiveExtensions.html Cheers

Olivier integrated the e4 template into the "normal" PDE plug-in wizard which is already part of the New menu in the Plug-in Perspective.
