[News.eclipse.technology.cme] Re: Exporting all relationships

[Matt Chapman <mchapman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Peter,

Firstly, we're working hard to produce an update site that works with
Eclipse 3.0 final - I believe we're nearly there.

Unfortunately there is currently no way of exporting all of the
relationships of a given project, but it does sound like a useful feature
to add. Feel free to raise a bug enhancement for it on Bugzilla. You
could even implement it yourself and submit a patch :) If you're
interested, I'd be more than happy to point you in the right direction -
the information regarding the relationships is used by the concern
explorer view so it is readily accessible.

Regards,

Matt.
