Fix for 80604 - [DyanmicUI] PerspectiveRegistry.validateLabel() doesn't do as it advertises Perspectives moved to the new dyanmic strategy.
<h1>Dynamic Plugin Support</h1> <p><em>Updated December 9, 2004</em><br> <author><a href="mailto:kim_horne@ca.ibm.com">Kimberly Horne</a></author> </p> <h2>Goals</h2> <p> There are two goals for 3.1 with regard to dynamic plugin support. The first goal is to ensure that all extension points provided by the Workbench respect the dynamic plugin loading and unloading provided by the Runtime layers. The second goal is to provide a mechanism and guidelines that other extension point providers can use to ensure that their own points respect dynamic plugin loading. </p> <h2>How To</h2> <p>TBD </p> <h2>Current Workbench Support</h2> <p> For each extension point, we describe two levels of support. The first is registry support and the second is effective support. The first implies that our internal cache of the extension point (if there is one) is dynamic aware. The second implies the workbench as a whole is capable of responding to changes to the given extension point. Ie: if a perspective that is currently opened is removed then the perspective is closed.</p> <p> <table border="1" width="100%"> <tr> <th>Extension Point</th> <th>Registry<br>Addition</th> <th>Effective<br>Addition</th> <th>Registry<br>Removal</th> <th>Effective<br>Removal</th> <th>Notes</th> </tr> <tr> <th colspan="6">Workbench</th> </tr> <tr> <td>actionSetPartAssociations</td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"> </td> <td style="text-align: center"> </td> <td style="text-align: center"> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>actionSets</td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"> </td> <td style="text-align: center"> </td> <td style="text-align: center"> </td> <td>This needs to be verified.</td> </tr> <tr> <td>activities</td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>commands</td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td>This needs to be verified.</td> </tr> <tr> <td>contexts</td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td>This needs to be verified.</td> </tr> <tr> <td>decorators</td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"> </td> <td style="text-align: center"> </td> <td style="text-align: center"> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>editorActions</td> <td style="text-align: center"> </td> <td style="text-align: center"> </td> <td style="text-align: center"> </td> <td style="text-align: center"> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>editors</td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>elementFactories</td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td style="text-align: center"><img src="../images/ok.gif" width="14" height="14"></td> <td>This one is interesting.
