Re: [nebula-dev] Viewers


Hi Tom,

Maybe you meant this bug?
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=151644

As you can see its been decided against.  It would be really great if JFace could provide a widget wrapper/proxy mechanism.  I think having each widget developer create their own viewer is kinda redundant redundant.  They would also almost certainly lag behind design and feature changes in the main JFace viewers.  Does any of your existing patches contain this kind of wrapper feature?

I do have plans to create a Nebula project with a JFace dependency (how bout NebFace?).  Besides just viewers there could be other things like contribution managers too.  

-Chris

Sorry meant not platform but widget-set

If this does go through I already providing this at JFace level using
wrappers which widget-implementators (e.g. nebula) have to provide.
