Re: [wtp-dev] Re: org.eclipse.wst.validation.validator support for facets?


This is an interesting trend.

Is it the case that every extension that's "sensitive" to project natures should also be "sensitive" to project facets?

Kosta, as the designer of facets, can you comment on your vision? Is it fair to ask you to "survey" other uses of project natures and see if this principle applies?
I know we could simply address "one at a time" as the need arises, but I'd prefer to have some idea of what the appropriate "big picture" is
supposed to be. In particular, there should probably be some consistent rule on making the associations (which applies, which order, are
associations always "additive" or are there cases of "don't do" something given a particular facet or project nature or combination)?

Thanks,

This work should probably be done for the URI resolver as well. I've opened enhancement 118451.

Gary,

You have mentioned a good point. The validation framework needs to enable support for enabling validators based on facet types in addtion to natures i.e either a nature can be defined or just a facet can be defined to both can be defined in the org.eclipse.wst.validation.validator  extension point implmentation to enable validators on a project.

Please open feature request for WTP 1.5 release as it cannot be contained in for WTP 1.0

Thanks

Regards, Vijay

Subject: [wtp-dev] org.eclipse.wst.validation.validator support for facets?



Are there any plans for the subject ext. pt. to support facets?  Currently, I can specify a <projectNature id="some nature id"/> such that my contributed validator is invoked only if the project in question has the specified nature.  But some tooling that extends WTP stuff is moving to facets, rather than natures, to indicate the presence of, say, some particular runtime support or functionality in the target project.  So it would be nice if this extension point let me specify a facet, rather than a nature.  As it is now, the best I can do is to specify a projectNature id="org.eclipse.wst.common.modulecore.ModuleCoreNature" (because the nature that I used to use is going away and becoming a facet instead).  But that means that my plug-in gets activated, and my validator invoked, on projects it doesn't care about.
