Re: [platform-ui-dev] Expression editor contribution
|
what is the difference or enhancement to the PDE editor?
the PDE editor component cannot be reused. Expressions are nice as they
can be used for all kinds of filtering. The contribution I am proposing
is a reusable Component that allows users to build such expressions in
the target application. Further extensions allow to add custom expressions.
I do not intend to replace the PDE editor. The UI element I am thinking
of targets end users that need to create filter expressions. Eg we could
create filters for the Error view in future.
Related to that work might be that Simon Scholz is working on a way to
define Java classes as expressions via Bug 509429.
I guess that work is not really related to mine.
If it does not fit to the platform I will host it within EASE directly.
For a Resource decorator contribution something like this would be
required though.
