RE: [mylyn-dev] UI for "Import Query"
|
Hi Jevgeni,
Usually this kind of detailed discussion is best done on the bug report because that makes it easier to refer to should we need to revisit points that were brought up. So please paste this question and response into the bug. However, do not hesitate to send broader design questions to the mylyn-dev list (e.g. ones that span bug reports) or requests for feedback on a particular bug report.
Regarding coupling mylyn.context.ui to eclipse.ui.ide, this cannot be done because it would couple the Context UI to the Eclipse IDE, precluding its use in IDE applications. If there were no other solution what I would suggest for you to do is:
1) Copy FileSelectionDialog into mylyn.context.ui and avoid modifying it. Change the class Javadoc comment to "COPIED FROM: @see{...}".
2) File a bug against Platform to make FileSelectionDialog API that's reusable outside of eclipse.ui.ide.
However, we only ever do this as a very last resort because of the high cost of copied code. I did some quick digging and found org.eclipse.swt.widgets.FileDialog, and it looks like you should be able to use that instead.
