[dtp-dev] Refactoring DDL generation wizard to support new feature

[Lawrence E Dunnell <ledunnel@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I will be delivering code next week
to restore the WTP capability to execute the DDL generated by the DDL Generation
wizard against a database.  This functionality creates a dependency
on the Results view in sqltools so the plug-ins for this feature will need
to be moved from the connectivity sub-project to the sqltools sub-project.
 I will do the change in several incremental steps as follows:

1. Move the existing plug-ins(org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.sqm.fe.ui.actions and org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.sqm.fe.ui ) to a new sqltools feature called "org.eclipse.datatools.sqldevtools.ddlgen.feature".
2. Deliver the changes to support the execution of the generated DDL.
3. Refactor the actions code (org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.sqm.fe.ui.actions plug-in) into the main plug-in (org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.sqm.fe.ui) resulting in a single plug-in.
4. Move the plug-in to the sqltools namespace and cvs directory.  The plug-in will be called "org.eclipse.datatools.sqltools.ddlgen.ui" and will be located at /HEAD/org.eclipse.datatools.sqltools/plugins/.

If anyone has any concerns, please let
me know.  I will begin making the changes on Monday (January 7th,
2008.)
