| Re: [e4-dev] E4 Extension Points |
Hi folks, thanks for the input. I think I need to partially re-state the question...
There's little doubt that option 1 will be done for allowing the ability to contribute e4 bits into the IDE -- but --
This approach won't be usable in 'pure' e4 rcp apps because the EP's reference IDE classes like ViewPart...
...so...should we also supply e4-specific extension points for common elements or leave the fragment / model processing as the only way to contribute to e4 apps ?

I agree with Lars that option 1 is better. But is there a reason we couldn't specify a POJO in the normal view "class" attribute? Whether the class implements IViewPart or is a POJO that needs to be wrapped seems like an implementation detail.

My understanding of 1.) is that the framework would accept Pojos. In would allow a smooth migration of the existing Eclipse IDE plug-in projects.

I agree with Lars. However, even option 1 seems like a duplication of fragments and processors to me. The main disadvantage for me would be, that you still stick to the old API. What is the advantage?

2013/7/10 Eric Moffatt <emoffatt@xxxxxxxxxx>I'm currently looking at what we're going to do as far as extension points go to enable folks to contribute e4 (DI) code into the IDE and I want to get some feedback from the e4 community as to the best way for me to do this...
I have two possible approaches:
1) Extend the current IDE extension points with e4-specific sections (i.e. extend the existing org.eclipse.ui.views EP to allow the addition of 'e4 View')
2) Provide separate extension points for the e4 bits (i.e. clone the existing org.eclipse.ui.views EP and tweak it to be e4-related
Do you *want* e4 specific extension points ? This is independent of having the ability to contribute them through fragment / model processing (which we'll also be working on in Luna). The BOF at last year's eclipsecon didn't come to a resolution on this (at least not one that I remember..;-).
Let me know what you think,
Eric
