Re: [pde-ui-dev] Understanding Product Editor Validation

[gm-mrktc <gmiller@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Janek,

This is all great stuff and certainly applicable to anyone doing forms
validation in the RCP.  Is there any chance that these classes might be
factored out into a "lighter weight" plugin so that we don't have to include
the entire PDE just to get forms validation?  Alternatively, could they be
folded into one of the other, lower-level UI plugins?

Thanks.

graham
