Hi Mike,

EASE views are written in eclipse 3.x style. So in a pure e4 application you would have to define them somehow in the application model I guess.

Basic plugins you need are:

* org.eclipse.ease
* o.e.ease.ui

Then add some language support (I guess python stuff in your case). Have a look at our target platform definition for external update site URIs:
http://git.eclipse.org/c/ease/org.eclipse.ease.core.git/tree/releng/org.eclipse.ease.releng.target/Oxygen.tpd

Having language support + the ease.ui plugin should provide run targets for *.py file.

Scripts for eg UI integration addtiionally need o.e.ease.ui.scripts. 
Then you need to register the script location in the Scripting preferences. To add toolbar/menu/popup elements we use 3.x semantics, I guess in an e4 application you would need to add the compatibility layer to have support for those things.

If you are able to contribute a toolbar by using extension points in a plugin.xml then EASE should also be able to add toolbars to your application.

Your findings regarding dependencies and integration would be very welcome for our wiki page!

Christian

I had to do some try and error until I got the interaction between EASE, Eclipse and Python right (the biggest issue was getting the Java classes of the selected elements and perform operations on them).

I have added the dependencies to the EASE plugin and the application launches. But no EASE functionality is working. The problem I think is that the application is not finding my scripts.
